==Key Stage 3==
===Meaning===
[[Biodiversity]] is the amount of genetic [[variation]] within [[species]] and between different [[species]]. The more genetic [[variation]], the greater the [[biodiversity]].
===About Biodiversity===
: [[Biodiversity]] between different [[species]] is important to maintain complex [[Food Web|food webs]]. When one [[species]] in a [[Food Web|food web]] becomes [[extinction|extinct]] it can cause many others to become [[extinction|extinct]].
: [[Biodiversity]] within a [[species]] is important to help a [[species]] produce [[fertile]] [[offspring]]. If a [[species]] is reduced to close family members their [[offspring]] can be deformed or inherit genetic conditions. Most Labradors have bad hips because they are all descended from a small number of dogs. They don't have enough [[biodiversity]] to inherit better hips.
