Detailed explanation-1: -the large variety of different organisms.
Detailed explanation-2: -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-4: -What factor contributes most to the sustainability of a habitat? climate.
Detailed explanation-5: -Coral reefs are believed by many to have the highest biodiversity of any ecosystem on the planet-even more than a tropical rainforest. Occupying less than one percent of the ocean floor, coral reefs are home to more than 25% of all marine life. Why is that important?
