Question

Among the following geographical locations, where could one expect huge biological diversity?

• A. Arctic Circle
• B. Sub-Saharan Region
• C. Amazon Rainforest
• D. Siberia

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Amazon Rainforest

Not all places on earth are bestowed with a large variety of organisms. If we were to look at the pattern, the highest biological diversity is seen near the equator and it reduces as we move towards the poles. The Amazon forest lies in the equatorial region and hence, is one of the most biologically diverse ecosystems on the planet.
