Answer to Question 1

Answer: Geographers pay their largest attention to plants which are usually the most conspicuous part of the landscape. However, geographers are frequently interested in explaining the reasons for very large expressions of organisms such as regions, continents, or the globe.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Biodiversity is the number of species present. High biodiversity means lots of species are present. Various biodiversities are naturally present by climate type. When biodiversity begins to decline in an area, it means that one of the environmental factors has changed, to the detriment of the species involved.
