: .
↳ the variety of living
organisms in an
area
Habitat diversity :
· habitat area inhabited by
=
a species
.
·
physical factors . soil t temperature range
g e .
·
. availability of food , predators
Biotic factors e g .
·
The number of different habitats in an area
↳ coastal areas have beaches , sand dures ,
solt mashes etc
.
↳ River valleys have meadows agricultural ,
woodlands etc .
T
funds , streams,
species diversity :
species = group of sumiar organisms that are
able to reproduce to give fertile offspring
.
·
The number of different speces (species
richness) - the abundance of each Ispec's
ispecies evenness) in an area
.
↑ A Woodland contains many different
species of plants insects , birds mammals ,
Genetic diversity :
·
The variation of alleles within a species or a
population of a species
- human blood type is determined by a
gene with 3 different aleles
↳ The variation of aleks within the dog
species guie rise to different breeds
