Q1.14. Which of the following statements about beta diversity is FALSE?

Beta diversity measures how quickly species composition has changed through time.

All else being equal, specialists are likely to be more common where beta diversity is high.

Relatively flat, homogeneous habitats tend to have lower beta diversity.

Beta diversity changes depending on the scale at which you measure it.
