    The document discusses three levels of biodiversity: genetic diversity which refers to variation in genes and DNA; ecosystem diversity which consists of biotic factors like animals, plants, fungi, and bacteria as well as abiotic factors such as water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight; and species diversity which is the variety of different species that exist. It provides examples of genetic diversity and lists the main components of ecosystem diversity, including both living and non-living elements of ecosystems. Species diversity is defined as the range of different autotrophic and heterotrophic protists or organisms that are found on Earth.
