Why forests are called biodiversity hot spots?
biodiversity regions contain around 60% of all of the species found on Earth, and because these species are endemic, damage to the regions could cause significant problems. Biodiversity as a whole on the Earth would decline, because many animals would vanish forever if their native habitats were severely compromised. In addition to being simply unfortunate, a decline in biodiversity could mean that humans might lose access to medically important plant species, among many other things.Forest serves as the reservoir of biodiversity containing different species of plants, animals and all other sorts of living organisms.. Biodiversity hotspot is termed to the specific forests consisting of richest diversity of species including most rare and prior to extinct species.
