⚡️⚡️This is because species in an ecosystem depend upon each other for food, keeping birth and death rates in a balance that is sustainable for the ecosystem. If there are a great number and variety of species, the disappearance of one species for whatever reason will not have as much effect on the ecosystem as a whole than it would if the extinct species had played a critical role, that is offered a function upon which other species relied exclusively⚡️⚡️

Answer:

Biodiversity refers to the variety of life on earth at all the levels. It is important for the following:

• An ecosystem is more stable when it has a high species diversity when compared to a low species diversity ecosystem

• Higher biodiversity causes the ecosystem to more stable in productivity, hence more resistant to any disturbance such as floods or alien species invasions

• The ecological balance in an ecosystem rich in biodiversity remains unchanged

• As different tropic levels are connected through food chains, illness of one organism at any tropic level would disrupt the whole food chain. For instance, if plants are destroyed in a food chain, then it would create an imbalance in the world of herbivores due to scarcity of food. Eventually, if all deers die, the tigers will also die soon.

Thus, if an ecosystem is rich in species, each tropic level will have other food alternatives which would increase the life expectancy rate of entities. Therefore, biodiversity has a significant role in preserving the ecological health and balance of an ecosystem.
