Madagascar and the Seychelles are both islands in the western Indian Ocean. Madagascar is over 1,000 times larger than the Seychelles. Using the theory of island biogeography, an ecologist would predict that:
a) Both islands will have similar species richness
b) Madagascar will have lower species richness due to its larger size
c) The Seychelles will have lower species richness due to its smaller size
d) Madagascar will have higher species richness due to its larger size
