Red, yellow, and orange bell peppers are all members of the same species = Genetic Diversity.
Individuals of the same lizard species have different mating strategies. = Species Diversity
Five different bird species are at a bird feeder. = Species Diversity
Explanation:
Genetic diversity refers to any inherited biological variation accumulated during the evolutionary process, generated, fundamentally, by mutation in the nucleotide sequence during DNA replication. In summary, through genetic diversity we can see a biological difference between individuals of the same species. An example of this is: "Red, yellow, and orange bell peppers are all members of the same species
".
Species diversity is the term used to describe the existence of different species of the same animal in an environment. For example, there are different species of ladybug in a garden, even though it is the same animal, each species of ladybug has genetic and morphological differences. Other examples of species diversity are:
Individuals of the same lizard species have different mating strategies.
A food chain can usually sustain no more than six energy transfers before all the energy is used up. And so less energy is transferred at each level of the food chain so the biomass gets smaller.
