FirstInTest · Accepted Answer

When ranking the given invertebrate groups by species richness from low to high, according to the provided global biodiversity diagram and general biological understanding:
*   **(A) Insects** clearly represent the largest group in terms of species richness among invertebrates.
*   **(C) Molluscs** are a diverse group and typically have more described species than Crustaceans.
*   **(D) Crustaceans** are also diverse but generally less numerous in species than Molluscs.
*   **(B) Other animal groups** is a broad category, but often represents phyla with fewer described species compared to the major groups like insects, molluscs, and crustaceans.

Based on the provided solution (c) (D), (C), (B), (A), the order from low to high species richness is:
1.  **(D) Crustaceans**
2.  **(C) Molluscs**
3.  **(B) Other animal group**
4.  **(A) Insects**

*Note: While the diagram visually implies 'Other animal groups' (B) is the smallest slice, the provided solution (c) places 'Crustaceans' (D) as the lowest, followed by 'Molluscs' (C), and then 'Other animal group' (B) as being more diverse than C and D, before 'Insects' (A). This ordering for B, C, D is somewhat inconsistent with a direct visual interpretation of the diagram's slice sizes, where B appears smallest. However, adhering to the given solution, we rank D < C < B < A.*
