ecology to the other sciences

In botanical gardens rare, endemic and threatened species of plants are conserved. Plants occurring in different ecological conditions are grown in the botanical gardens. Botanical garden of Ooty and botanical garden of Kolkata are some example..

Electricity is obtained from flowing water. Water from the dam is allowed to flow through the tunnels at a high pressure. Turbines convert the potential energy of the water into electrical energy. About 23,800 MW of energy is generated by hydel power in India. Hydel power requires construction of b..

In parapatric speciation, the zones of two diverging populations are separate but do overlap. There is only partial separation afforded by geography, so individuals of each species may come in contact or cross the barrier from time to time, but reduced fitness of the heterozygote leads to selectio..

The Environment influences an organism's life in many ways. It is everything that surrounds an organism and it includes physical and biological components. The physical components of the environment are soil, water, air, light and temperature. These are termed as abiotic components. The biological ..

Introduction - The Environment influences an organism's life in many ways. It is everything that surrounds an organism and it includes physical and biological components. The physical components of the environment are soil, water, air, light and temperature. These are termed as abiotic components. ..

The biotic component of our environment on land, i.e. plants and animals (leaving aside the oceans and other water bodies) are overwhelmingly found in forests. Forests form a buffer for the earth to protect life forms; in fact that's where all our biodiversity and including cultivated crops and ho..

. Such instances have now been repeated and clearly pointed to a model in which decentralized economic growth and ecological conservation go hand in hand. This will ultimately determine whether the environment will be conserved or further destroy..

Lastly, we come to the nature and wildlife enthusiasts who are not in any way dependent on the forests. Environmentalists and Nature Conservationists, NGOs like the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), Centre for Science and Environment (CSE), International Union for Conservation of Nature..

Introduction - The term ecology is derived from two Greek words (oikos - means 'house' or place to live and logos means 'a discussion or study'). Literally, ecology is the study of organism 'at home' in their native environment. The term was first introduced by Reiter in 1868, b..
