Q. Which of the following levels of biodiversity is involved in:
(i) Formation of ecotype
(ii) Process of speciation
(iii) Enabling a population to adapt according to the changes occurring in the environment

NTA AbhyasNTA Abhyas 2020

Solution:

An ecotype is a genetically and geographically distinct variety of the same species which forms a different population or race by residing in another geographical area, thereby getting adapted to that particular condition. These varieties are formed due to variation in a gene or alleles representing genetic diversity.
