1.
I would say individual biodiversity. I have read that there are variations in genes so genetic variation is a biodiversity along with species diversity and ecosystem biodiversity. In fact, genetic diversity is similar to species diversity. Species have their own genetic variation.

2.
True. We are losing biodiversity at a higher rate than ever before.

Answer:

1. Option C

2. True

Explanation:

1. Individual diversity is a common concept of social science where it is considered that each individual is unique from each other. However, the parameters of uniqueness include dimensions such as socio-economic status, age, physical abilities, religious beliefs, political beliefs, or other ideologies, race, ethnicity, gender etc. Hence, individual diversity is not a part of overall biodiversity

2.

It is true that by the end of the first half of the Quaternary Period many of the species including camel tapir, horse , llama, Large mammals such as saber-toothed tiger, mastodon,  ground sloth etc. will get extinct as they have already extincted from part of the geography. The major reason of extinction is slow rate of reproduction
