• Biodiversity refers to the variety of life on Earth, including the diversity of species,
genetic diversity within species, and diversity of ecosystems. Biodiversity patterns
refer to the distribution of species and ecosystems across the planet, and are
influenced by a variety of factors such as climate, topography, geology, and human
activities. Global biodiversity hotspots are areas of the world that are particularly
rich in biodiversity but are also under threat from human activities.
