<span>Trisomy is a condition in which a person's cells have three chromosomes in a single set. Normally, a person's chromosomes come in pairs and humans have 23 pairs of these chromosomes (46 in total).

When a person has a trisomy disorder, an additional chromosome is found in one of the pairs of chromosomes. When this happens the individual has a total of 47 chromosomes in his cells. Down syndrome, Edward syndrome, and Patau syndrome are the most common gene abnormalities caused by trisomy disorder.</span>

Which of the following is a good predictor of biodiversity in terrestrial ecosystems?
finlep [7]

The correct answer is - predator species in a community.

In the terrestrial ecosystems, a very good and usually sure predictor of the biodiversity is the existence of a predator species. The more predator species there are, the higher the biodiversity, and vice versa, the less predator species, the lesser the biodiversity.

The reason why the predators are such a good predictor of the biodiversity is that they are the species that are on the top of the food chain. That means that the predators are dependent for their survival on all the other species bellow them in the food chain, which is pretty much all species apart from themselves.

If a predator is present, than there has to be pray. If there's pray, omnivores and herbivores, than there has to be plants. All of the organisms are connected to one another, and the ones on the top of the food chain are the most dependent on the others, thus their existence usually means a healthy ecosystem with higher biodiversity.
