Jawaban: Untuk mengisi bagian yang kosong pada nomor 72, pilihan yang paling sesuai adalah "B. relatively".

Strategi Pemecahan Masalah:
1. Pertama, baca seluruh kalimat dan paragraf untuk memahami konteksnya.
2. Selanjutnya, coba untuk mengidentifikasi fungsi kata yang dibutuhkan. Dalam kasus ini, kita memerlukan sebuah adverb (kata keterangan) yang dapat menggambarkan "narrow band of the planet" (wilayah sempit dari planet).
3. Bandingkan pilihan jawaban dan pilih yang paling sesuai dengan konteks kalimat dan paragraf.

Proses Berpikir:
- Kata "relatively" berfungsi sebagai adverb yang memberikan nuansa komparatif terhadap "narrow band of the planet". Kata ini menunjukkan bahwa meskipun wilayah tersebut sempit, ia memiliki keanekaragaman biologis yang sangat tinggi.
- Pilihan lain seperti "relativity", "relatives", "relative", dan "relation" tidak cocok dalam konteks ini karena mereka tidak berfungsi sebagai adverb atau tidak menyediakan makna yang tepat.

Konsep atau Rumus:
- Dalam soal semacam ini, penting untuk memahami fungsi gramatikal dari kata yang akan diisi serta konteks keseluruhan kalimat atau paragraf.
- Adverb biasanya digunakan untuk memodifikasi sebuah adjektif, verba, atau adverb lain. Dalam kasus ini, "relatively" memodifikasi "narrow".

Oleh karena itu, jawaban yang paling tepat adalah "B. relatively". Kalimat lengkapnya menjadi: "In that relatively narrow band of the planet, more than half of all the species of plants and animals in the world make their home." Ini menunjukkan bahwa wilayah tersebut, meskipun relatif sempit, sangat penting dalam konteks keanekaragaman biologis.
