ecology of invasions by animals and plants

Ecological Adaptations - The part of the earth in which life exists is called biosphere. The biosphere consists of 3 major types of habitats. Aquatic habitat Terrestrial habitat Aerial or Arboreal habitat The special characteristics of plants and animals that enalbe th..

The environment in which the man and other organisms live is called the biosphere. The biosphere is made up of different regions that have different types of flora (plants) and fauna (animals). The types of organisms in an area are determined by various factors such as the clim..

Ecological Balance - The environment in which the man and other organisms live is called the biosphere. The biosphere is made up of different regions that have different types of flora (plants) and fauna (animals). The types of organisms in an area are determined by va..

Ecological Pyramids - Ecological pyramids are also called 'Eltonian pyramids' after C. Elton. Charles Elton (1927) developed the concept of ecological pyramids who noted that "the animals at the base of a food chain are relatively abundant while those at the ..

Soil ecology is the study of life in soil in harmony with abiotic factors like air, soil particles, carbonaceous materials etc. In its natural condition, soil has its own equilibrium featured by delicate balance between micro and macro organisms in the form of series of food chains ..

Ecological Adaptations - Xerophytes - These are plants adapted to grow in dry habitats. They are classified into three categories on the basis of their morphology and life - cycle patte..

The plants, which grow in saline habitats, are called Halophytes. There is high concentration of salts like sodium chloride, MgSO 4 etc. in these habitats. As the habitat is physiologically dry due to salts, the halophytes show characters similar to Xerophyte..
