Question

Explain patterns of bio diversity w.r.t latitude gradients and species area relationship.

Answer 1

The latitude gradients basically refer to the change in biodiversity at various latitude, it is observed that the diversity decreases with high latitude due which it is observed that the diversity is much vast at the equator than at the poles. As we move away from the equator the diversity tends to decrease while the latitude is increasing.

Species-area relationship refers to the number of species, type of species living in a particular habitat.
