      <string>Welcome! /Plant Diversity/ .Environmental pollution has an adverse effect on 
plants especially those medicinal that have beneficial effects on the health 
of the body.The main causes of the disappearance of plant and animal species 
are: destruction of habitats, commercial exploitation (the collection of 
plants, hunting and poaching irrational), the damage produced by acclimatized 
species and pollution. Of these cases, the destruction of Habitat is the 
greatest threat to these species.Maintaining existing ecosystems, such as 
coral reefs, forests, or swamps, depends largely on their biodiversity. The 
disappearance of one of the species that make up a food chain can lead to the 
decline of the ecosystem in question. Irreversible decline of biodiversity 
has a serious impact on the living standards of the people. Healthy 
ecosystems provide food, clean air, water and fertile soil for agriculture. 
Also, 40% of modern drugs are derived from plants and animals.
