An example of a smaller ecosystem existing within a larger ecosystem is a pond.
That depends precisely on how you define "Habitat" and "Ecosystem". If a "Habitat" is a specific set of parameters in the environment, and an "Ecosystem" is a overall area that broadly defines a region, a perfect example is a Bat and a Badger in a temperate forest setting.
The Badger lives outside, in a burrow in the forest surrounding the cave in which the Bat lives in. The Bat's Habitat is the cave. The Badger's habitat is the forest itself. Both are in the Temperate Forest ecosystem.
All of the above are just examples. A look at any good field guide or wildlife guide for an area will give you more ideas.
examples of organism and there habitat and niche
fish and crayfish. both live in water but don't share the same niche
What are some of the different populations that would be found in a forest ecosystem?
living
stuff
a pond
Humans are small but we live in a big erath.
trees
A ocean
They can share the same habitat because some animals live in the same houses and they cant share the same niche because their different animals . =) and that's the answer .
A habitat is where the organism lives; desert, jungle, ocean etc. Many organisms can live in the same habitat. The niche is the organisms role within the habitat. Niches are generally much smaller then that of the habitat.
If two animals occupied the same niche, they would have to compete for the resource that is gained from that specific niche
No. Fish are the same species but some are bigger than others.
Because a niche is an organisms place in an ecosystem, specific to only that organism and including its job and what is eats or is eaten by. Two different organisms can have similar niches, but they cannot have the exact same one.
A niche is a cycle an organism goes through every day to survive. A hahitat is where an organism lives.
no they do not have the same niche but same habitat, so what?
The habitat is where an organism lives and has many different organisms within it. The niche is the purpose that organism fulfills in that habitat. No two species can occupy the same niche in the same habitat due to competition for that role.
It is because animals have different adaptations such as fur and has a difference such as feathers.
They can share the same habitat because some animals live in the same houses and they cant share the same niche because their different animals . =) and that's the answer .
different animals have different niches in their habitats
There is massive competition for resources resulting in one of the two species being driven away or made extinct.
no two species can share the same niche
If 2 mouse species tried to occupy the same niche they would fight. The mice fight to right to occupy the niche. The winner of the fight gets the niche.
Niche: an organism's role in the environment. Habitat: specifically where it lives. For example, many organisms maybe have the same habitat (under a log, if we're considering insects), but as long as they occupy different niches, they will not be in competition.
