What can accumulate over successive generations to contribute to biological diversity?
Various mutations that occur over many, many generations will lead to different species. This is called speciation.
How do genetic mutations influence biological diversity?
In most cases mutations increase genetic variation, but only if they propagate to later generations.
What are the Technologies that affect biological diversity?
Technologies that affect biological diversity include genetic modification. This will cause a loss in biodiversity.
Why do alligators and wolves help maintain biological diversity?
Wolves keep the elk population down and through them, help the plants to recover and grow. This helps new plants to start growing and genetic diversity increases. I'm not sure about alligators.
What are the the variety of living things in an ecosystem called?
Biodiversity is the diversity of living things.

When was Center for Biological Diversity created?
Center for Biological Diversity was created in 1989.

When was International Day for Biological Diversity created?
International Day for Biological Diversity was created in 1993.
Define biological diversity?
Biological diversity is a National U.S. group. This is a group that uses science.
What is biological diversity?
Answer:Biological diversity is the number and variety of organisms in an areahope that helps
How is biological diversity measured?
Genetic variability of a speciesSpecies diversity (how many species of all animals, plants etc there are in a biological community)The diversity of biological communities in a (larger) area
What do humans benefit from diversity?
Diversity increases the chance of human survival. When a species is more diverse there is a larger chance of the population surviving an epidemic or such that might relate to biological variations in DNA or variations in "fitness" (biological variations). based on Darwin's Theories and Evolution
How is biological diversity increased?
More alleles in the population. For example a group of ten blue eyed people: diversity would be increased if they had 5 blue and 5 brown eyed people.
What are the Technologies that affect biological diversity?
Technologies that affect biological diversity include genetic modification. This will cause a loss in biodiversity.
