Preservation of biodiversity is important to humans for aesthetic, ethical and practical reasons
Biodiversity provides humans with food, clothing, shelter, oxygen, soil fertility, etc.

Darwin & WallaceNatural Selection
◦ Variation in populations Some variation heritable
◦ More individuals born than will survive◦ Organisms are adapted to abiotic (regional
climate) and biotic factors. ◦ The presence and success of a species in a
particular place depends upon its ability to adapt

Darwin also saw that when humans choose organisms with specific characteristics as breeding stock, they are performing the role of the environment
– This is called artificial selection
– Example of artificial selection in vegetables derived from wild mustard and dog pedigree

Species interactionsSpecies interactions
There are five basic types of interactions between species:1. interspecific competition2. predation3. parasitism4. mutualism5. commensalism
These interactions tend to regulate the populations of species and can help them survive in changes environmental conditions

Communities in transition (ecological Communities in transition (ecological succession) succession)
Communities constantly change in response to change environmental conditions.
The gradual change in species composition of given area is called ecological succession
There are two types of ecological succession :1. primary ecological succession2. secondary ecological succession
