Select the correct statement about biodiversity
1 Western Ghats have a very high degree of species richness and endemism
2 Conservation of biodiversity is just a fad pursued by the developed countries
3 The desert area of Rajasthan and Gujarat have a very high level of desert animal species as well as numerous rare animals
4 Large scale planting of Bt cotton has no adverse effect on biodiversity
Explanation:
Western Ghat occur along the western coast of India in Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kerala. - There is high degree of endemism as well as richness of species of flowering plants, amphibians, reptiles some mammals and butterflies. - Hot spots are areas with high density of biodiversity or megadiversity which are also the most threatened ones. - Ecologically hot spots are determined by four factor i.e:- (I) Number of species (II) Species endemism (III) Degree of threatened to habitat due to its degradation and fragmentation (IV) Degree of exploitation. - India has three hotspots- Indo-Burma, Himalayas and Western Ghat, Sundarban.

Keystone species deserve protection because these
1 Are capable of surviving in harsh environmental conditions
2 Indicate presence of certain minerals in the soil
3 Have become rare due to overexploitation
4 Play an important role in supporting other species
Explanation:
Keystone species have a larger role in maintaining the ecological balance, affecting several different organisms in an ecosystem. - Keystone species are species that have a very low population but their impact on the ecosystem structure, composition and functioning is disproportionately significant. - These play a very important role in supporting other species and maintaining the ecosystem balance hence deserve protection. Examples of some keystone species are sea otters and Beavers etc.

Explanation:
Animals that grow or live in the wild without any human interference are known as wildlife. Wildlife helps keep the food chain in place and there by maintain ecological stability. The practice of protecting wild species and their habitats to maintain healthy wildlife species or populations and to restore, preserve or enhance natural ecosystems is known as wild life conservation. The aim of wildlife conservation is:- (i) To maintain essential ecological processes and life-supporting systems, i.e air, water and soil. (ii) To preserve are diversity of different species. (iii) To rais the economic value by continuous use of species and ecosystem.
