Biodiversity
The variety of organisms considered at all levels, from genetic variants belonging to the same species through arrays of species to arrays of genera, families, and still higher taxonomic levels. This includes a variety of ecosystems that comprise both the communities of organisms within particular habitats and the physical conditions under which they live.
