Biodiversity refers to the variety of living species on Earth, including plants, animals, and microorganisms, as well as the ecosystems they form. Biodiversity exists at genetic, species, and ecosystem levels and can be measured by species richness and evenness. Various modes of conservation aim to protect biodiversity both within natural habitats (in-situ) and outside of natural habitats (ex-situ) through means like national parks, botanical gardens, zoos, and endangered species lists. Loss of biodiversity threatens human survival, so cooperative conservation efforts across entire landscapes are needed.
BIODIVERSITY AND STABILITY.pptx
This document discusses biodiversity and how it relates to stability in ecosystems. It defines biodiversity as the variety of life in an area, including different species that work together. Greater biodiversity provides greater economic opportunities and adaptive responses to challenges like climate change. Species have adapted through natural selection, developing physical adaptations like camouflage and mimicry, behavioral adaptations like migration and hibernation, and learned behaviors. Biodiversity is measured by richness of species and evenness of populations - more diverse, evenly distributed ecosystems are more stable and likely to survive. Biodiversity provides direct economic value if species are sources of food, medicine or resources, indirect economic value through ecosystem services, and aesthetic value through natural beauty.
Bio diversity
This document defines biodiversity and discusses its types, values, distribution, and importance for balancing nature. It outlines threats like habitat loss and overexploitation, as well as conservation efforts. Key points include that biodiversity encompasses genetic, species, and ecosystem diversity, and provides values like consumption, production, social/cultural, and ecosystem services. Most biodiversity is in tropical regions. Anthropogenic threats endanger many species, but conventions aim to promote conservation.

Biodiversity is the foundation of life on Earth and provides humanity with essential resources. However, biodiversity is declining rapidly due to factors like increased human dependence on agriculture and industrialization. An estimated 1.7 million species, around 25% of all biological diversity, face extinction over the next few decades if conservation efforts are not improved. India contains significant biodiversity with over 1.35 lakh species, including many endemic species, across diverse ecosystems. While only comprising 2.45% of the world's land area, India is home to 8.1% of global biodiversity. Urgent action is needed to protect biodiversity through expanded conservation areas and policies to ensure biodiversity is preserved for future generations.

GEMMA Wean is a high end larval co-feeding and weaning diet aimed at Artemia optimisation and is fortified with a high level of proteins and phospholipids. GEMMA Wean provides the early weaned juveniles with dedicated fish nutrition and is an ideal follow on from GEMMA Micro or Artemia.
GEMMA Wean has an optimised nutritional balance and physical quality so that it flows more freely and spreads readily on the water surface. The balance of phospholipid classes to- gether with the production technology based on a low temperature extrusion process improve the physical aspect of the pellets while still retaining the high phospholipid content.
GEMMA Wean is available in 0.1mm, 0.2mm and 0.3mm. There is also a 0.5mm micro-pellet, GEMMA Wean Diamond, which covers the early nursery stage from post-weaning to pre-growing.
