Detailed explanation-1: -Why does biodiversity contribute to a habitat’s sustainability? The more plants and animals in a habitat, the greater the biomass, which is how habitats store energy. The greater the number of species, the more competition there is for food between predators, which sustains their populations.
Detailed explanation-2: -Greater biodiversity in ecosystems, species, and individuals leads to greater stability. For example, species with high genetic diversity and many populations that are adapted to a wide variety of conditions are more likely to be able to weather disturbances, disease, and climate change.
Detailed explanation-3: -The ocean ecosystem has a high sustainability because of-the large variety of different organisms.
Detailed explanation-4: -Biodiversity contributes to the sustainability of a habitat since a healthy ecology features many trophic levels of producers, consumers, and decomposers. More biodiveristy at any such niche supports each other niche: more diverse plant life leads to more diverse herbivores and in turn more diverse carnivores.
Detailed explanation-5: -Optimum level of harvesting, adoptability to changing conditions (such as global carbondioxide buildup), self regulation capability are some factors that can be listed to increase sustainability of an ecosystem.
