The vast array of different forms of life that can be found on Earth is referred to as the planet's

"biodiversity." It is possible to use it in a way that is more precise to refer to all of the species that live in

a certain location or environment. The term "biodiversity" refers to the variety of life on Earth, which

includes humans, plants, animals, and microbes. According to the research carried out by scientists, the

world is home to over 8.7 million unique kinds of plants and animals. However, there have only been

roughly 1.2 million species discovered and described up until this point, the vast majority of which are

insects. This indicates that the identities of millions of other species will continue to be kept secret.
