Solution

The correct option is B

Biodiversity


Biodiversity is the shortened form of two words "biological" and "diversity." It refers to all the variety of life that can be found on Earth (plants, animals, fungi and micro-organisms) as well as to the communities that they form and the habitats in which they live. For example, A larger number of plant species means a greater variety of crops.
