• Diversity
  • Whether the diversity is genetic (alleles in a gene pool), morphological (shapes and sizes of organisms), behavioral (strategies in a population), or epistemological (theories or perspectives on a problem), the logic remains: distributing capacity, function, or knowledge across distinct types reduces dependence on any single variant, the core mechanism MacArthur (1955) proposed for community stability through pathway redundancy in food webs.
