Both within populations and among populations of organisms.
6
Question
What aspects does species diversity include?
Page 4
Answer

10
Question
What is ecosystem diversity?
Page 4
Answer
Variation of habitats, biological communities, and diversity of ways in which organisms interact with each other and with their environment through ecological processes.
11
Question
What community aspect is included in ecosystem diversity?
Page 4
Answer
Variation of biological communities.
12
Question

Page 4
Answer
Diversity of ways organisms interact with each other and their environment via ecological processes.
13
Question
How does genetic diversity differ from species diversity?
Page 4
Answer
Genetic diversity focuses on heritable variation within and among populations, while species diversity involves richness, evenness, and distribution of species.
14
Question
How does species diversity differ from ecosystem diversity?
Page 4
Answer
Species diversity covers species numbers, abundance, and distribution, whereas ecosystem diversity includes habitats, communities, and interaction processes.
