Biology

Ksju [112]2 years ago

It is so because there is an increase in the number of superior competitors which eventually exclude the lesser competitors. Therefore there is a loss in species diversity.

<h3>What is species diversity?</h3>
  • It is defined as the number of different species present in an ecosystem and relative abundance of each of those species.
  • Diversity is greatest when all the species present are equally abundant in the area.
  • Due to more resources, one species becomes dominant and excludes others.
  • Diversity is inversely proportional to dominance.
  • Species diversity is usually highest at intermediate values of resources.
