Question

As we move from the polar region towards the equator, the biodiversity gradually _____ (a) Decreases (b) Increases (c) Increases and decreases (d) All the given

Answer 1

I think that it increases

Answer 2

"Option: (b), Increases.

Reason:

   When the biodiversity range of polar as well as equatorial regions are compared, the Polar Regions are extremely cold and are fully covered with huge masses of ice and glaciers. The aforesaid climate cannot support more biodiversity.

     On the other hand the environmental condition experienced in the equator belt is tolerable by most forms of living species. Hence as we port from the Polar Regions to the equator region, the biodiversity gradually increases.
