Biodiversity
- coined from the words “biological
diversity” which means the “variety of
life on Earth”.
- describes how varied living things are
in a certain area - plants, animals,
fungi, and microorganisms as well as
the community they form and the
habitat they are living in
Variations of Biodiversity
1. Genetic diversity
2. Ecosystem diversity
3. Species diversity
 deals with the
different kinds
of organisms
e.g. dragonflies,
sunflowers,
dogs are all
different
species

SPECIES DIVERSITY
 pertains to the
difference in the
genetic
composition of
each organism
e.g. Beagle, Shih
Tzu, German
Shepherd,
Doberman are all
the same species
but they differ in
the variety of
GENETIC DIVERSITY their genes
 concerns the
different kinds of
places where
organisms live
and the
interconnections
that bind these
organisms
together e.g.
lakes, rivers,
ponds are all
ECOSYSTEM freshwater
ecosystems
 MATCHING TYPE

genetic diversity.
