The following information is about Biodiversity.
Biodiversity Defined
The diversity of life found in nature. The ecosystem relies on complex food chains and interaction between different organisms. A class full of identical students all with the same name and same likes/dislikes would be very dull - biodiversity makes life more interesting and is essential to our ecosystem. One early sign of damage in the environment is a reduction of biodiversity - the number of different plants and animals becomes reduced.
This definition is in context to Oceanography. See more contextual defintions for Biodiversity.

For all these groups, habitat destruction, through agriculture, logging and development, is the main threat and occurs worldwide.
