Solution

The correct answer is (b) A forested mountain with a river flowing through into a nearby lake. Ecosystem diversity refers to the variety of different ecosystems within a geographical area. It includes the complexity of a biological community, including the number of different habitats and the different kinds of species in those habitats. In this case, a forested mountain with a river flowing into a nearby lake represents different habitats and likely a variety of species.
