Biodiversity and Species Concept — NEET Biology
📚 Practice ConceptIf you look around you will see a large variety of living organisms, be it potted plants, insects, birds, your pets or other animals and plants.

Obviously, if you were to visit a dense forest, you would probably see a much greater number and kinds of living organisms in it. Each different kind of plant, animal or organism that you see, represents a species. The number of species that are known and described range between 1.7-1.8 million. This refers to biodiversity or the number and
