Genetic Diversity: the sum of all the different genes in a particular species (species: group of the same type of organisms that can easily breed and produce offspring)
-there are small variances in organisms of the same species (ie height, colour). These small differences can help the species to adapt to the constantly changing world.
-may help survival rate of species (monoculture vs. rich diversity species)
Species Diversity: variety of species and relative abundance to the species living together in the same area. Having the variety of species live together may contribute to their health and sustainability to the ecosystem.
Structural (Ecosystem) Diversity: variety of habitats, the different species that live in that habitat, and the relationships that connect the different species together.

What is diversity in an ecosystem?
the types of plants and animals that are located in that ecosystem
What is the study of the distribution of living things across earth?
The study of plants is botany. Global distribution is Bio-diversity. Global distribution of plants then might be Botanical-diversity
What is system diversity?
System diversity refers to the state of having different forms or types within an organized body. In science, biodiversity refers to the variety of life in a particular ecosystem.
What are the four major types of biomolecules in living things?
1. nucleic acids, 2. carbohydrates, 3. lipids, 4. proteins
What will happen if plants and animals disappear from the earths surface.Can human being survive under such a situation. Why is bio-diversity necessary and why should it be conserved?
If plants and animals disappeared, there would be no food. Humans would possibly turn to cannibolism (Agh, I know I misspelled that) and that would simply drive the population down even faster. Bio-diversity is necessary because without it, we will STARVE. I think it's fairly obvious why it should be conserved. It should be conserved because it is necessary. Duh.
Why does extinction endanger diversity?
Extinction is the permanent removal of a species which decreases bio-diversity. Bio-diversity is measured in two fashions # of species and # of members/species these two factors together make up a regions bio diversity, therefore with the removal of a species the regions bio-diversity decreases.
When was Cheddi Jagan Bio Diversity Park created?
Cheddi Jagan Bio Diversity Park was created in 2001.

What do you call a measure of the number of species an area contains?
Bio-diversity.
What is the characteristic of biodiversity?
Bio-diversity has no single characteristic. Hence the name.
What is Bio conservation?
bio conservation is the protection of global biodiversity starting at local, regional and global communities, ecosystems and cultures and apply to both plants and animals biodiversity has 3 components: 1- Genetic diversity 2 - species diversity 3- community/ecosystem diversity bio conservation aims to protect each of these 3 aspectss
The great variety of plants and animals?
no clue you?:P
Give three types of biodiversity essential in preserving ecological systems and functions?
Three types of biodiversity that are essential in preserving ecological systems and functions are genetic diversity, species diversity, and ecological diversity. Genetic diversity is a measure of the variety of versions of the same genes within individual species. Species diversity describes the number of different kinds of organisms within a community or ecosystem. Ecological diversity means the richness of complexity of a biological community.
