Consider two ecosystems that scientists have labelled as ecosystem A and ecosystem B. The scientists have found that both ecosystems are home to a roughly equal number of species. However, ecosystem A is dominated by a small number of species that are very abundant. Ecosystem B, by contrast, has a more even abundance of organisms across its species. From this description, ecosystem B is considered _______ ecosystem A. less biodiverse than equally biodiverse as more biodiverse than more valuable than

Respuesta :

Answer:

Ecosystem B is considered more diverse than ecosystem A.

Biodiversity refers to the diversity found in organisms living in a particular area. It can be divided into three levels:

  • Species diversity; diversity among species,
  • Genetic diversity; diversity within the organisms of the same species, and
  • Ecological diversity; it represents complex network of interaction (intra or inter-specific) between organisms within a ecosystem.

So, we can conclude that: even if the number of species found in both the ecosystems is equal but better distribution  of organisms across the species makes the ecosystem B more diverse at genetic and ecological level.
