Biodiversity

Front 3

3 types of biodiversity

Back 3

1.Genetic diversity

Front 4

Pertain to the variation of genes within species

Back 4

Genetic diversity

Pertain to the variety and and abundance of species within a region

Back 5

Species diversity

Front 6

Is the variation among groups of organisms in different physical settings
