The correct answer is: 2.4%, 8.1%
Although India has only 2.4% of the world’s land area, its share of the global species diversity is an impressive 8.1%. That is what makes our country one of the 12 mega diversity countries of the world. Nearly 45,000 species of plants and twice as many animals have been recorded from India.
