1.)The forest had a higher species richness because the forest had 6 different species and the forest only had 5

2.) According to the Simpsons Index the forest is more diverse

3.) No because each site either has a high number of species and high diversity or a low number of species with a low diversity

4.) We need to conserve the environment since when we ruin all the plant life it lowers the biodiversity and destroys our earth.

Conclusion: The forest was much more diverse than the field, since there were more species in the forest and the number of those species were greater than the grass fields’.
