Efforts in {commensalism, conservation, pollination} help to protect species and ecosystems.
Conservation

The different forms of genes in living things, or {ecosystem diversity, genetic diversity, mutation} add to Earth's biodiversity.
Genetic diversity

Marshes, beaches, rivers, and forests are part of Earth's {ecosystem service, keystone species, ecosystem diversity}.
Ecosystem diversity
15
The many different kinds of animals in a forest represent {species diversity, ecosystem diversity, mutation}.
Species diversity

An inherited property of a living thing is called a {extinction, mutation, trait}.
Trait

The complete loss of a species is called {endangerment, habitat loss, extinction}.
Extinction

An {endemic, inherited, diverse} species is one found in a particular place and nowhere else.
Endemic
15
A sudden change in a living thing's genetic material is called a {trait, endemic, mutation}.
Mutation

Squirrels, birds, and other animals help with {seed dispersal, genetic diversity, ecosystem diversity}, or scattering seeds away from a parent plant.
Seed dispersal

Bees and birds are two animals that help plants reproduce by providing {commensalism, pollination, symbiosis}.
Pollination
15
A relationship between two living things is called {mutualism, commensalism, parasitism} if it benefits both of them.
Mutualism
15
A relationship between two living things that helps one and harms the other is called {mutualism, commensalism, parasitism}.
Parasitism
15
A clownfish and a sea anemone are connected by {mutualism, commensalism, parasitism}. In this relationship, one living thing benefits and the other is neither harmed nor helped.
Commensalism
15
A {species diversity, keystone species, mutation} increases the diversity of its ecosystem.
Keystone species
