The total number of species living in a particular area is referred to as its Biodiversity .
Explanation:
Biodiversity -
Biodiversity is defined as the variability and the variety of life existing on the planet Earth . Biodiversity measures the variation in the species , genetics and the ecology of the Planet . In the terrestrial level , the biodiversity is greater near the equator , due to warmer climate and higher level in production .
The biodiversity is not uniformly distributed on the planet , and is basically richer in the tropical region . Less than 10 percent of the Earth's surface is covered by the tropical forest ecosystems and contains around 90 percent of the world's species .
The diversity of marine life is higher near the Western pacific and in the mid latitude band , where the sea surface temperature is highest .
Canada was under British rule beginning with the 1763 Treaty of Paris, when New France, of which the colony of Canada was a part, formally became a part of the British Empire.
