Answer 1

All organisms living together and interacting with one another in a common environment or natural habitat in a local area are known as a community.

Explanation:

A community consists of various populations of organisms that interact among themselves and with their physical environment. This is distinct from terms such as biome, biosphere, or biomass, which refer to broader or distinct ecological concepts. Thus, “community” specifically refers to all organisms coexisting and interacting within a local area or habitat.
