Biologists studied the effects of forest fragmentation by calculating the difference between the amount of plant biomass in the edges of forest fragments and the interiors of unfragmented forest is True.

Explanation:

Division of large forest area into small pieces is known as the forest fragmentation. The small pieces of forest are usually separated by the roads, agriculture, utility corridors, subdivisions, or other human development.

The forest fragmentation may lead to reduction in water quality, loss of biodiversity and also causes increase in invasive plants, pests, and pathogens.

This may lead to many serious effects. The effects of forest fragmentation are analyzed by calculating the difference between the amount of plant biomass in the edges of forest fragments and the interiors of un-fragmented forest.
