Verified step by step guidance1
Begin by understanding the different levels of ecological study. Ecology is the branch of biology that deals with the interactions among organisms and their environment.
Organismal ecology focuses on individual organisms and their adaptations to the environment.
Population ecology examines groups of individuals of the same species living in a particular area and their interactions with the environment.
Community ecology is concerned with groups of individuals of different species interacting in a shared environment. It studies the interactions between species and how these interactions shape the community structure.
Ecosystem ecology looks at the broader picture, including both biotic (living) and abiotic (non-living) components of the environment, and how energy and nutrients flow through the ecosystem.
