Key Takeaways  &   For Your REVIEW

•          BIODIVERSITY

• WHAT IS BIODIVERSITY?
  

  Is all the different kinds of life you’ll find in one area—the variety of animals, plants, fungi, and even microorganisms like bacteria that make up our natural world.

• Each of the species in the world and organisms work together in ecosystems, like an intricate web, to maintain balance and support life. Biodiversity supports everything in nature that we need to survive: food, clean water, medicine, and shelter.
  

  But as humans put increasing pressure on the planet, using and consuming more resources than ever before, we risk upsetting the balance of ecosystems and losing biodiversity.
  

  Areas with extremely high levels of biodiversity are called hotspots.
  

  While Earth’s biodiversity is so rich that many species have yet to be discovered, many species are being threatened with extinction due to human activities.

• BIODIVERSITY IN GUATEMALA

• The country has high ecological diversity. It has been determined by the variation in altitude and rainfall. The biodiversity is abundant, ranging from the Pacific and Atlantic Coastal Marine Zones (sea level) to the highland mountains and volcanoes.
• there are 10 physiographic regions, 7 biomes
• A BIOME is: A large naturally occurring community of flora and fauna occupying a major habitat, e.g. forest or tundra.)
• Guatemala also has 14 ecoregions, 66 ecosystems, and 14 life zones. Guatemala's floral diversity currently has 321 families, 2,478 genus, and 10,317 species (including algae, lichen, mushrooms, and hepatic plants). 823 species represent some type of endemism, and 538 are restricted to Guatemala.
• Regarding fauna in Guatemala, there are 192 species of native mammals, 486 species of birds (only those that reproduce in Guatemala.
