The document instructs students to complete two Venn diagrams comparing: 1) species diversity and genetic diversity, and 2) tropical rainforests and deciduous forests. For the first diagram, it notes that species diversity refers to the variety of species on Earth while genetic diversity refers to genetic variations within species. The second diagram compares that tropical rainforests are located near the equator with hot, humid climates while deciduous forests are in temperate regions and shed leaves annually.
