Answer: diversity of niches

, large area and warm climate

Step-by-step explanation:

An ecosystem is a biotic community in which the living beings interact with their non-living physical environment. The following factors which are responsible for higher biodiversity in an ecosystem:

Diversity of niches: A niche can be define as the functional role an organism performs in an ecosystem so as to sustain it's life. For example the type of habitat, food and breeding season chosen by the organism. With the increase in the differences in the diversity of niches the organism exhibit variations and differences from the members of the same species or from the members of the other species.

Large area: The large area can support the reproduction and abundance of members which belongs to different species hence will help in promoting higher biodiversity in a region.

Warm climate: The warm climatic range will offer the chances of adaptations to the living organisms to sustain their lives in harsh environmental conditions. This will lead to evolution of new species from the parent species.
