Column-I Column-II (a) Genetic diversity (i) 8.1 percent of global species diversity (b) Species diversity (ii) Rauwolfia vomitoria variation (c) Ecological diversity (iii) Western Ghats amphibians (d) India’s land area (iv) 2.4 percent
Choose the correct matching:
a-i, b-iii, c-ii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-iv, b-ii, c-i, d-iii
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Genetic diversity refers to the variation in genes among individuals of a species, as exemplified by Rauwolfia vomitoria. The species diversity is highlighted by the greater amphibian diversity in the Western Ghats, while India’s share of global species diversity is noted as 8.1 percent, despite only covering 2.4 percent of the world's land area.
