EducationWhy is biodiversity importantVarious threats to biodiversityThe role of science and technology in conserving biodiversityWhy is biodiversity important?Biodiversity is important for many reasons and they can be generally divided into two categories: the importance for ecosystems and for us.Biodiversity is what allows ecosystems to work and flourish. Over millions of years many different species of plants and animals have come to live in the same habitats. Over time they balance each other and hold the ecosystem together. When a species is removed (biodiversity is reduced) the ecosystem can lose its balance, causing it to break down.One iconic example of this is sea otters in kelp forests along the CALIFORNIA coast. Sea otters feed on sea urchins and sea urchins feed on kelp. If sea otters are removed sea urchins multiply, eating large PORTIONS of the kelp forest, destroying the habitat and eventually leading to the DEATH of other animals that live there. The whole ecosystem falls apart.PLZ MARK AS BRAINILIST |
