Key Points: Habitat

  • Habitat is the place or environment where an organism lives and survives, including both living and non-living factors.
  • Factors like sunlight, temperature, rainfall, and soil determine the type of organisms present in a habitat.
  • Examples of habitats include ponds, rivers, oceans, and forests, which may be terrestrial, aquatic, aerial, or arboreal.
  • Niche refers to the functional role of an organism in its environment, including its diet, behaviour, and interactions.
  • In simple terms, habitat is the “address” of an organism, while niche is its “role or profession.”
