ANSWER

Biodiversity index = 0.091

EXPLANATION

Given a total number of 6 species with their individual numbers

Biodiversity index is:

[tex]\text{ }\frac{Total\text{ number of species }}{Total\text{ number of individual in the area}}[/tex]

i.e:

[tex]\begin{gathered} Biodiversity\text{ index = }\frac{6}{9+6+43+3+3+2} \\ \text{ = }\frac{6}{66} \\ \text{ = 0.09090} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the Biodiversity index of Amy's backyard is 0.091. This indicates a low biodiversity since it's closer to 0.
