The Indian embassy field is a diverse field because it is both biologically rich and even. This idea can be supported by the data we compared with all the Biology classes. There are 56 species with 193 units of the species in total. There is richness present because there is a large number of different species present. There is evenness present because even though there is a variety of plants, they are evenly distributed across the land.
Using the Simpson’s index,
I can say that D = (3524) / (37056) = 0.095.
The solution to the equation is equal to 0.095 which is a number close to 0, which means the area is biologically diverse.
Using Simpson’s index of diversity
I can say that D = 1 - 0.095 = 0.905 which is a number close to 1, which means the area is biologically diverse.
0.905 + 0.095 = 1, which would make the field 100% diverse but according to the solution, the Indian embassy field is 90.5% diverse.
