- I have found that the field species has richness( that there are multiple individuals of the species found) as well as evenness( because largely, there are the same number of individuals every species, with some exceptions).
- The Simpson's Index points out that the field is diverse, as the probability comes out to be 0.095 which is closer to 0.
- The Simpson's Index of Diversity is 0.905, which is closer to 1 than to 0, indicating the probability that two individuals randomly selected from a given sample will be from different species.

Is the Indian Embassy field biologically diverse?
I think the Indian embassy field is biologically diverse. On adding up the data of all the biology classes, we found the number of different species to be 56 and the number of individuals of the species to be 193. I support my statement with taking into consideration the aspects of classifying something as diverse.

How could we have improved the data collected in the lab? The SID relies on random samples, were our samples random?
