The concept of species diversity refers to the number of different species of living beings (i.e species richness) that are present in a given ecosystem, region, or determined place. Thus, in this question, the correct answer is option A if we consider that the "different types" are different species.

In regards to the rest of the options, the differences that mention can occur within the same species (genotypic and phenotypic variability).
