Image "B" shows more biodiversity than image "A". Why?

• Because "B" shows more different species than image "A"

• Because image "B" has less different species than "A"

• "A" has a greater number of same species plants so this statement is wrong.

• Both images show the same biodiversity

Why is biodiversity so important?

• Because all species depend on each other to survive, so if one becomes extinct another species that relies on it could go extinct as well
• Because it’s better to have only one variation of each species.
• Because it better to only have a few species on Earth.
• Honestly, I have no idea what biodiversity is!
