DIVERSITY IN LIVING ORGANISMS

Introduction
Biodiversity refers to all the diverse plants, animals and micro organisms present on earth.
Biological diversity or biodiversity is the occurrence of diverse or varied forms of living beings which differ from one another in external appearance, size, colour pattern, internal structure, nutrition, behaviour, habitat, etc.
They range in size from microscopic bacteria, hardly a few micrometers in size, to Blue Whale (about 30 m in length) and Redwood trees (Sequoia) of California (about 100 m in height). Similarly some pine trees (e.g. Pinus) live for thousands of years while many insects like mosquitoes have a life span of a few days. There are transparent jelly fishes and worms on one hand to brightly coloured birds and flowers on the other hand.
It is estimated that there are at least 10 million different species of plants and animals living today, but only 1.7 million have been described so far worldwide.
