  • Species diversity
  • Biodiversity
  • Habitat diversity

  • 10. 
    This is the importance of species diversity

  • species interacts with its environment and hence performs some functions
  • species never interact with the environment
  • species minimize interaction with its environment and hence performs certain
  • species does not perform functions though it interacts with the environment
