9. GENETIC
• Refers to the sum total of
genetic information contained
in the genes of organisms.
• With existence of different
genes within a given species, for
example bananas.
10. Bananas, there are many genetic variation
when it comes to their color and to their taste.
12. • Genetic diversity is important
because it helps maintain the
health of population by including
alleles that may be valuable in
resisting diseases, pests and other
stresses. If an environment
changes a population that has a
higher variability of alleles will be
better able to evolve and adopt to
the new environment.
13. SPECIES
• Class of individuals
having common
attributes and
designated by a
common name.
• Example is the big cat
family
14. Existence of big cat such as the tiger, the
lion, and the jaguar.
15. ECOSYSTEM
• Geographic area where biotic
and abiotic organisms work
together to form bubble of life.
• Example. Existence of different
biomes which helps in creating
in the different needs and
adaptation of every species of
plants and animals.
17. IMPORTANCE OF BIODIVERSITY
Sustain life support system on for
different species of plants and animals
simply because they interdepend with
one another.
Also it is considered bi-rescue in which
of our food, clothing and other needs are
being extracted from.
18. Somehow biodiversity
declined in the past major
extinction events
There are many proposed
reasons for the current
drop in biodiversity some
of those reasons are
anthropogenic meaning
caused by humans.
19. Anthropogenic factors include things like over harvesting
of resources and global climate change caused by human
activities.
20.
21. ACTIVITY.
Cite at least one example of anthropogenic
activities you can observe in your area and
explain how it affects biodiversity.
