Co-extinction occurs when the extinction of one species causes the extinction of another species that depends on it, such as a plant and its pollinator or a host and its parasite.

Alien species invasions are one of the major causes of biodiversity loss. They often reduce biodiversity by displacing native species.

Alexander von Humboldt observed that species richness increases with increasing explored area, up to a limit.

On a logarithmic scale, the species-area relationship becomes a straight line represented by log S = log C + Z log A.

Alexander von Humboldt observed that species richness increases with increasing explored area, up to a limit.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 13: Biodiversity and Conservation Species-Area Relationship
Biodiversity provides ecosystem services such as climate regulation, maintenance of soil fertility, pollination, nutrient cycling, and seed dispersal.
