Increased Resilience: Biodiverse ecosystems are more resilient to change. Loss of one species can be compensated by another with similar traits, maintaining ecosystem function. Genetic Diversity: Strong populations with high genetic diversity can adapt to adverse impacts over time. Maintaining biodiversity is crucial, especially in the context of climate change and growing human impact. More diverse ecosystems offer better resistance and adaptability to environmental shifts.
