- Scientists, especially taxonomists, have discovered new species in two different ways.
- One way is to study plant and animal specimens at the Academy of Natural Sciences and other museums.
- The academy's collection of more than 18 million specimens is a treasure trove of life.
- Biodiversity enhances the productivity of an ecosystem where every species, no matter how small, plays an important role.
- Evolution and diversity stem from the interactions between organisms and their environments and the consequences of these interactions over long periods of time.
- Organisms are constantly adapting to their environments, and the diversity of environments that exist promotes a diversity of organisms adapted to them.
