How is an organism's habitat different from its 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.


How do you explain what the niche of a frog is?

The niche of an animal is all the conditions it can tolerate and where it lives. There are two types of niches. A broad and narrow niche. An animal that has a broad niche can tolerate more conditions rather than an animal that has a narrow niche. An example of an animal that has a broad niche is an opposum. An example of an animal that has a narrow niche is a panda bear. A frog generally tends to have a broad niche. It can live in areas that have little water sources to areas that have a vast region as water sources.


What is the ecological niche of the northern spring peeper?

The ecological niche of a animal is both its "address" and its "profession". It explains where in the ecosystem you will find the animal and what it will do there. The basical niche is described by the abiotic factors, that surround the animal. The real niche, the animal is living in is most likely much smaller as biotic factors like competition, predation and so on also play a role in defining the niche!


Can two animals live in the same niche?

Yes, but they will compete with eachother as they need the same resources (food, space, etc). If one does not overtake the other, they can coexist. This of course in the case of the same niche in the same area. Kangaroos and gazelled take up the same niche, but in Australia and Africa respectively, so they don't compete.
