Answer:
Biodiversity hotspots are regions under surveillance of humans where threatened and endemic species of flora and fauna are grown. These regions have been identified as some of the world's most important ecosystems.
The two criteria for designation as a biodiversity hotspot are:
1. It must possess at least 1500 vascular plant species as endemics : It means the region must have a high percentage of plant species which are found no where else in the world.
2. It must have 30% or less native vegetation : It means that the plant species population is endangered and threatened to extinction.
