Biodiversity is the variation in living organisms from all sources such as terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. It also involves the interaction of the biotic and abiotic factors with each other. Biodiversity is responsible for maintenance of balance in the ecosystem. Thus the correct answer is option D.

Biodiversity is the variety of different types of life found on the Earth and the variations within species. It is a measure of the variety of organisms present in different ecosystems. Hence, the correct answer is option C.

Biodiversity is the term used to describe the variety of life found on Earth and all of the natural processes. This can refer to genetic variation, ecosystem variation or species variation within an area, biome or planet. The biodiversity is more concentrated within the tropical ecosystems than temperate ecosystems. The most diverse group of animals are invertebrates. 
Some human activities have indirect but wide-reaching effects on biodiversity, including climate change and pollution. These threats have put a serious strain on the diversity of species on Earth.

Biodiversity is the measure of the variety of life on the earth. It can refer to genetic variation, ecosystem variation, or species variation within an area, biome, or planet. Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Biodiversity, a contraction of "biological diversity," generally refers to the variety and variability of life on the Earth. One of the most widely used definitions defines it in terms of the variability within species, between species and between ecosystems. It is a measure of the variety of organisms present in different ecosystems.  

The different variety of life forms is known as biodiversity which includes plants, animals and microorganisms where they interact with each other and maintain the ecosystem. Thus, the correct answer is option D.

The Earth Summit was held in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil in 1992. Earth summit at Rio, Brazil, promoted 'Convention on Biological Diversity' (CBD), which was signed by 152 nations. Its recommendations came into effect on 29th Dec. 1993. India became a party to this 'Convention on Biological Diversity' in May 1994.

The local species pool is known as alpha diversity. It is also the diversity present within the community. Beta diversity is the diversity present between the communities. The diversity present in the ranges of communities is known as Gamma diversity.

The variety and variability of living organisms (both plants and animals) are known as biodiversity. The variation measured by biodiversity is at the genetic, species, and ecosystem level. Species richness and evenness are major factors determining biodiversity. Tropics have the highest biodiversity.
