5 | Biome |
Explanation of Solution
A group of individuals of a species that can interbreed to produce a viable offspring living in the same geographic location is termed as population. In a population, every individual belongs to the same species and depends on the same factors to survive.
When two or more populations interact with each other, they are termed as communities. In a community, living beings of different species interact with each other and sometimes depend on each other for survival.
A living entity is known as an organism.A cell is the smallest unit of life and every organism is made of one or more cells.These cells are responsible for all the necessary
A community includes all the living organisms and community along with all the abiotic factors of that region makes up an ecosystem. In an ecosystem, all the biotic and abiotic factors interact with each other.A biome is a group of ecosystems that have similar communities and climate.
