Biology Quarter 2: Weeks 10-11. Topical Understanding. Populations, collections of individuals of the same species that regularly interbreed, are the functional unit of both ecology and evolution. Most populations, under ideal conditions, tend to grow.
What is biodiversity? Biological diversity is the wealth of life on earth, the millions of plants, animals, and microorganisms, the genes they contain, and the intricate ecosystems they help to build into the living environment. (WWF 1989). Levels of biodiversity.
