Which one of the following statements is INCORRECT regarding genetic diversity?

Genetic diversity refers to the variation of genes within a single species, which is known as intraspecific diversity. Interspecific diversity refers to the diversity between different species, which is termed species diversity.

Allelic variations lead to individual differences within a species, and the existence of subspecies or races are examples of genetic diversity. It also includes variations within a population.

Therefore, the statement that genetic diversity is interspecific diversity is incorrect.

Answer: Genetic diversity is interspecific diversity
