which of the following best describes a relative density?
a measure of species diversity otherwise known as the shannon diversity index
the number of arthropods in a field
an assemblage of different species that occupy the same habitat at the same time
the percentage of a community taken up by one species

Explanation:

Relative density in ecology is the proportion of a species' individuals in a community relative to the total number of individuals of all species in that community, which is equivalent to the percentage of a community taken up by one species. The Shannon Diversity Index measures species - diversity, not relative density. The number of arthropods in a field is just an absolute count. An assemblage of different species in the same habitat is a community concept, not relative density.

Answer:

the percentage of a community taken up by one species
