There are sevarel reasons for extinction. They include
I would have to say that extinction isn't vitally important to the success of evolution. After all if some primitive species manages to survive it doesn't really matter to those species that are evolving with success.
HOWEVER there maybe some minor factors to extinction that have an influence on the evolution of successful species.
My Answer
Extinction is actually hugely important to evolution. New species require a chance to flourish and therefore cannot have competition for its resources. Therefore, a dominating species must first die out for a new species to survive.
The amount of variety of life forms present. More biodiverstity means more widely differing kinds of life, from simple bacteria all the way up to large mamm
biodiversity is importNT bec. humans deoends on animals.
Climate change could reduce biodiversity by reducing the populations of many different types of plants and animals.
biodiversity helps all creatures live together

The problem with evolution is that there is nothing that we can do to stop it that will not also cause a massive loss of biodiversity.
because evolution can be successful if the immediate biodiversity stays in the organisms making them diverse and seperating them from the rest
yes and also an example of evolution
Speciation adds to biodiversity. Hence it affect the evolution of best suited forms to come up.

I'm not an expert, but a moist environment at the least would lead to faster biodiversity by providing a transmission between species.
To have evolution, you must have random variation and differential reproductive success. Biodiversity represents the random variation found in a population. Natural selection, the way in which evolution works, does not create new traits. It only selects them and allows them to become more prevalent in the population. This happens because the organisms with the favorable traits are able to produce more offspring. Without biodiversity, these traits might not exist in the first place and so could not be favored.

They mean that biodiversity is an important thing for a habitat.So, better not try to copy this dude.
