What is Biodiversity?
What is Biodiversity?
Biodiversity is the biological diversity in an environment as indicated by numbers of different species of plants and animals.
Maintaining biodiversity is beneficial for the environment but also for humans who rely on it for survival. Biodiversity provides billions of dollars’ worth of resources, which we call ecosystem services A few of the ways humans can help maintain biodiversity are by: Restoring habitats, limiting the spread of invasive species, using energy efficiently, passing laws that protect ecosystems, conducting research, slowing climate change, and using products that are environmentally sustainable.

Symbiosis is a close relationship between two species in which at least one species benefits. For the other species, the relationship may be positive, negative, or neutral. There are three basic types of symbiosis: mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism.
Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship in which both species benefit. Commensalism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species benefits while the other species is not affected. One species typically uses the other for a purpose other than food. Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species (the parasite) benefits while the other species (the host) is harmed.
A type of relationship that is not symbiotic but still seen often in ecology is the Predator-Prey relationship. The predator prey relationship consists of the interactions between two species and their consequent effects on each other. In the predator prey relationship, one species is feeding on the other species. The prey species is the animal being fed on, and the predator is the animal being fed. Usually these populations go through cycles.

A tapeworm needs to eat food that is already digested, so it lives in the intestines of a dogfish shark and derives nourishment from the shark. As a result of the tapeworm infestation, the shark is weakened and more vulnerable to disease and predation.

Corals feed off the byproducts of a microscopic algae living within their own tissue, called zooxanthellae. The photosynthetic activity of the algae is vital to the survival of the coral animals, which use the energy to extract calcium from the seawater and build their calcareous skeletons. The zooxanthellae are protected by the hard coral and obtain plant nutrients from the coral. This is an example of:

Usually these populations go through cycles.
The answer is "a close relationship between two species in which at least one species benefits."
Symbiosis is a close relationship between two species in which at least one species benefits. For the other species, the relationship may be positive, negative, or neutral. There are three basic types of symbiosis: mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism.
Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship in which both species benefit. Commensalism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species benefits while the other species is not affected. One species typically uses the other for a purpose other than food. Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species (the parasite) benefits while the other species (the host) is harmed.
A type of relationship that is not symbiotic but still seen often in ecology is the Predator-Prey relationship. The predator prey relationship consists of the interactions between two species and their consequent effects on each other. In the predator prey relationship, one species is feeding on the other species. The prey species is the animal being fed on, and the predator is the animal being fed. Usually these populations go through cycles.
