Answer :
Absolute density is determined by the number of species within each quadrat.
And relative density is the density of one species as a percent of total species density..
Frequency is the percentage of total quadrats containing at least one of a given species.
And relative frequency of one species as a percentage of total species frequency
1. Absolute density of Zygophyllum qatarense (using quadrate method) = (3+1+1+1+5+4+2+1)/13= 26/13= 2
Absolute density of Aeluropus logopoides = (1+5+1+6+4)/13= 17/13= 1.32
relative density of Zygophyllum qatarense = (26/55)* 100
Relative density of Aeluropus logopoides= (17/55)* 100
2- Frequency of Zygophyllum qatarense= (10/13)*100
Frequemcy of Aeluropus logopoides= (5/13)*100
3. relative aboundance of Zygophyllum qatarense = 52/13
and relative aboundance of Aeluropus logopoides=83/13
