Organisms and populations: Ecological adaptations, population interactions

The environment is what surrounds us. Ecosystems are the interactions betweenThe environment is the space in which all living things exist and thrive. The environment is the place where living things live. An ecosystem is a community in which biotic and abiotic elements coexist and interact with one another.People study ecology because it looks at […]

Lumbricus Terrestris is relatively large,generally 110 to 200 mm (4.3 to 7.9 inches) and about 7 to 10 mm (0.28-0, 39 inches). It has about 12017 segments, often 135150. The body is cylindrical with the body, except for the rear and flattened back. Deep brown next to reddish brown and the back declining to his

In ecology, the term habitat refers to the collection of resources, physical and biological characteristics that exist in a region in order to sustain a species’ survival and reproduction. The habitat of a species can be thought of as the physical expression of its biological niche. Thus, “habitat” is a species-specific term, distinct from concepts

Biology and life science are two distinct academic fields. Biology is the scientific study of life and living organisms, whereas life science is a broader term that encompasses any scientific study of life. Biology is the more specific field of study, with many different branches such as anatomy, physiology, ecology, and genetics. Life science, on

The term adaptation dates back to the early 17th century, when it was used to describe a relationship between design and function, or how something fits into something else. In biology, this generic concept has been hijacked, and adaptation now has three distinct interpretations. First, an animal or plant can adapt physiologically by adjusting to

Cultural landscapes in the countryside, forests, urban areas, and cities, fixed archaeological structures on land or water, constructions and built environments from various eras, as well as bridges, roads, power lines, and industrial and port areas, are examples of human-shaped cultural environments. On the one hand, cultural settings are a nonrenewable resource, yet they are also

Bacteria (also referred as Eubacteria), Archaea, & Eukarya are the three realms of life. Microorganisms make up the Bacteria and Archaea, whereas plants, animals, plus microorganisms like fungi and protists make up the Eukarya.  Because they lack a nucleus, Bacteria and Archaea have been lumped together and dubbed Prokaryotes, however the Archaea are more closely

Community in biology is defined as the assembly of different organisms and their interactions. Organisms interact with one another through symbiotic relations, including mutualisms, parasitism, competition and commensalism. Ecosystem diversity consists of biotic and abiotic factors, while a community only deals with biotic or living factors. A community can also be defined as a subset

Class Amphibia is a subclass of the animal kingdom that includes all amphibians, which are animals that are capable of surviving both on land and in water. These are vertebrates that are typically not very large in comparison to their surroundings. Amphibian is derived from the Greek term ‘amphibious,’ which literally means ‘living on two

Fungi are eukaryotic or prokaryotic creatures that lack chlorophyll and are generally multicellular. We are continually exposed to fungi through the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the water we drink since there are thousands of distinct types of fungi that share our environment. Yeasts, rusts, smuts, mildews, moulds, and mushrooms are all
