Why do different plants and animals live in different areas?
Most plants and animals live in areas with very specific climate conditions, such as temperature and rainfall patterns, that enable them to thrive. Any change in the climate of an area can affect the plants and animals living there, as well as the makeup of the entire ecosystem.
What is the variety of different species of plants and animals in an environment?
Biodiversity refers to the variety of living species on Earth, including plants, animals, bacteria, and fungi.
How do different species interact with their environment to live and grow?
In all these environments, organisms interact and use available resources, such as food, space, light, heat, water, air, and shelter. Each population of organisms, and the individuals within it, interact in specific ways that are limited by and can benefit from other organisms.
What are the major factors that affect animals and plants in different habitats?
Some examples of limiting factors are biotic, like food, mates, and competition with other organisms for resources. Others are abiotic, like space, temperature, altitude, and amount of sunlight available in an environment. Limiting factors are usually expressed as a lack of a particular resource.
