a-iii, b-i, c-ii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-iii, b-ii, c-i, d-iv
a-ii, b-iii, c-i, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Genetic diversity refers to the genetic variations within a species, such as the 50,000 rice strains in India (a-iii). Species diversity is exemplified by the greater amphibian diversity in the Western Ghats compared to other regions (b-i). Ecological diversity encompasses the variety of ecosystems, while invasive species like the Nile perch have caused significant ecological issues (d-iv).
