Functional Diversity The biological and
chemical processes such as energy flow
and matter recycling needed for the survival
of species, communities, and ecosystems.
Heat
Chemical
nutrients
(carbon dioxide,
oxygen,
nitrogen,
minerals)
Heat
Solar

Heat
Decomposers
(bacteria, fungi)
Heat
Ecological Diversity The
variety of terrestrial and
aquatic ecosystems
found in an area or on
the earth.
Producers
(plants)
Consumers
(plant eaters,
meat eaters)
Genetic Diversity The variety
of genetic material within a
species or a population.
Heat
Species Diversity The number
and abundance of species
present in different communities. Fig. 4-2, p. 82

A group of bacteria,
including genetically
resistant ones, are
exposed to an
antibiotic
Normal
bacterium
Most of the normal
bacteria die
The genetically
resistant bacteria
start multiplying
Eventually the
resistant strain
replaces the strain
affected by
the antibiotic
Resistant

Adapted to cold through
heavier fur, short ears,
short legs, and short
nose. White fur matches
snow for camouflage.
Arctic Fox
Northern
population
Early fox
population
Different environmental
conditions lead to different
selective pressures and
evolution into two different
species.

southward and

Gray Fox
Southern
population
Adapted to heat through
lightweight fur and long
ears, legs, and nose,
which give off more heat.
