What can measured by the number of different species that live on earth?

The number of different species that live on Earth is a measure of biodiversity. Biodiversity is crucial for ecosystem stability, resilience, and the provision of ecosystem services such as pollination, water purification, and climate regulation. It reflects the health of ecosystems and can indicate the impacts of environmental changes, such as habitat loss and climate change. Additionally, high biodiversity contributes to genetic diversity, which is important for species adaptation and survival.

How are species related to the concept of biodiversity?

Species are finite categories in which individual fauna fall into. They are typically characterized by an inability to interbreed with other species and create viable offspring. While a horse and a donkey can create a mule, the mule is in almost all cases sterile and thereby not a viable offspring. Biodiversity is created by having many different species. Speciation (the process in which new species come to exist) is responsible for creating biodiversity.
