using a random number generator, calculate 10 coordinates of random numbers. at these coordinates, place a 1m x 1m quadrat. count the number of the required species in the quadrat. repeat for each coordinate. calculate the mean number of organisms, the area of the habitat and the area of the quadrat (1m2). using the formula: mean number of organisms / area of 1 quadrat x area of habitat, find the average number of organisms in the habitat.
