Biodiversity is usually defined as the diversification of living species that exist on earth and the complexities that occurs in the ecosystem. It includes all the plants, animals, humans and micro-organisms.
The biodiversity is often affected by factors such as climate change, loss of habitat area, and occurrence of invasive species.
Three of the biological services that are provided by biodiversity are as follows-
A large number of medicines are being made from the various plant species that exist in an ecosystem.
It provides food, on which the organisms are dependent on it.
It also provides materials that are used for construction purpose and used as shelter.
While both are eukaryotic and don't move, plants are autotrophic - making their own energy - and have cell walls made of cellulose, but fungi are heterotrophic - taking in food for energy - and have cell walls made of chitin.
