Greater biodiversity exists closer to earths equator then in areas closer to earths poles

I'm going to pretend that this is a true or false statement.

So, this would definitely be true. While some flora and fauna are definitely hardier (able to withstand extreme cold), most biodiversity would be clustered around the equator and/or the tropics because most animals can withstand warm temperatures, and warm temperatures also actually stimulate breeding and reproduction, which would promote biodiversity even more.

the sugar-phosphate backbone forms the structural framework of nucleic acids, including dna and rna. this backbone is composed of alternating sugar and phosphate groups, and defines directionality of the molecule.

igneous rocks which formed by the crystallization of magma at the surface of the earth called extrusive rocks. they are characterized by fine-grained textures because the rapid cooling at or near the surface did not provide enough time for large crystals to grow.
