The place or function of a given organism within its ecosystem.
# Different organisms may compete for the same niche. For example, in a forest there may be a niche for an organism that can fly and eat nectar from blossoms. This niche may be filled by some sort of bird, or an insect, or even a mammal such as a bat.

AnswerA broad niche is a type of organism that can generally live anywhere or eat most things unlike a specialist. AnswerA broad niche is NOT an organism. It's the environment. EX: Canada has a broad niche because the organisms that live there have to adapt to the rapid changing weather. The animals that live in a broad nichearegeneralists because they can adapt easily to changes while specialists live in a narrow niche that doesn't change much. Broad niches have a low number of different species but each species has a very high population (caribou in Canada). Narrow niches support many different species but each species has a small population (a certain bird in the tropics).Wiki User
∙ 14y agoA specialized niche is when a plant or animal can only live under specific conditions. They only inhabit a certain area, and eat one type of food. Organisms with a specialized niche do not adapt to change very well and are greatly affected by it.

What are broad and narrow niches?
Broad: A role or characteristic of a generalist organism Narrow: A highly specialized role or characteristic of an organism The difference between the two, is that a broad niche has a more spread out variety of foods and such. Narrow niches are more specific needs that food, etc, can only be provided in a very specific environment. Organisms that live in a Narrow niche, have certain needs that can only be met in its environment, when organisms in a Broad niche are more open to whatever there is to eat. They usually just eat whatever is edible To help you remember the difference, think of a Narrow niche as very thin, and delicate. Broad sounds like a word for wide or spread out. Think of a fat animal that eats whatever it wants or sees around it. Narrow is more specific and detailed like a diet that keeps the animal healthy or "thin".
