Biodiversity

 

Biodiversity is all the different kinds of life you'll fine in one-area the variety of animals, plants, fungi, and even microorganisms like bacteria that make up our natural world. Each of these species and organisms work together in ecosystems, like an intricate web, to maintain balance and support life.

Biodiversity — short for biological diversity — is the variety of all living things and their interactions. Biodiversity changes over time as extinction occurs and new species evolve. Scientists often speak of three levels of diversity: species, genetic, and ecosystem diversity.

Biodiversity is essential for the processes that support all life on Earth, including humans. Without a wide range of animals, plants and microorganisms, we cannot have the healthy ecosystems that we rely on to provide us with the air we breathe and the food we eat. And people also value nature of itself.

Biodiversity includes the number of different organisms and their relative frequencies in an ecosystem. It also reflects the organization of organisms at different levels. Biodiversity holds ecological and economic significance. It provides us with nourishment, housing, fuel, clothing and several other resources.

The term “Biodiversity” was coined by Walter G. Rosen. It is the variety of animals, plants, fungi, and prokaryotic organisms living together that form nature. Each of the mentioned species lives and works together in an ecosystem to maintain the ecological balance.

Biological diversity or Biodiversity is the differences and variety between the living organisms of all sources. It includes all terrestrial (land-dwelling), marine (aquatic) and other different ecosystems and ecological complexes.
