- Is There A Limit To Evolution On Earth?
What are our limits to evolution? There are two theories concerning the growth of diversity amongst the planet. These 2 theories include diversity in an equilibrium or diversity that is rapidly expanding (occupying every possible niche, as well as, exploiting...

- Population: Ecology
This picture was taken at the Arnold Arboretum. Here is a large plot of land where many different shrubs and trees grow for display. All of these plants in one area are their own population. A population consists of organisms that can successfully reproduce...

Niche
The tree in the picture is part of the niche for every bird that lives in it. For a bird, in addition to the tree it lives in, the climate, its diet, etc. also form part of the niche. A niche describes the position of a species or population in an ecosystem. In other words, niche includes how a population responds to the available resources and predators. Also, abiotic and physical factors form part of a niche.
