Answer:

The interactions between the many microorganisms, plants and animals is referred to as Biodiversity.

A food web or food chain is a sequence of who eats whom. A simplified sequence involves sunlight, plants, herbivore, omnivore and/or carnivore.

Plants generate food from sunlight, herbivores eat plants, carnivores herbivores, omnivores eat both carnivores, herbivores and plants.

  • Man is an omnivore. Some animals such as bear or fish also belong to this category.
  • Lion is an example of a carnivore.
  • Cow and rabbit are examples of a herbivores.
  • All plants are at the bottom of the food chain large plants, tree plants, shrubs or even microscopic plants like plankton (the small and microscopic organisms drifting or floating in the sea or fresh water, consisting chiefly of diatoms, protozoans, small crustaceans, and the eggs and larval stages of larger animals.)

So the biodiversity is important to the stability food webs because, the total nutrient uptake of the multitrophic community, is depends on vertical diversity (i.e. food web's maximum trophic level) and structure (i.e. distributions of species and their abundances and metabolic rates across trophic levels).

Multitrophic community is a community involving species of different trophic levels of the same food chain.

Answer:

Biodiversity boosts ecosystem productivity where each species, no matter how small, all have an important role to play. For example, A larger number of plant species means a greater variety of crops. Greater species diversity ensures natural sustainability for all life forms.

Explanation:

As food web complexity increases, there is less stability in the population of the different species, causing as a result, biodiversity fluctuations in a more rapid and frequent way and it is  the variability among living organisms from all sources, including terrestrial, marine, and other aquatic ecosystems and the ecological complexes of which they are part; this includes diversity within species, between species, and of ecosystems.
