Organismal ecology focuses on the morphological, physiological, and behavioral adaptations that let an organism survive in a specific habitat. Population ecology studies the number of individuals in an area, as well as how and why their population size changes over time.
Ecology is the branch of biology that studies how organisms interact with their environment and other organisms. Every organism experiences complex relationships with other organisms of its species, and organisms of different species.
Organismal ecology is the study of how individual organisms interact with their environment and how these interactions influence their behavior, physiology, and life history. This branch of ecology focuses on the adaptations organisms develop to thrive in specific habitats and the factors that affect their survival and reproduction.
Organismal Ecology. Researchers studying ecology at the organismal level are interested in the adaptations that enable individuals to live in specific habitats. These adaptations can be morphological, physiological, and behavioral.
Organismal biology is a field of study that investigates species adaptations and how these adaptations help them to survive in their environment.
Organismal biology, the study of structure, function, ecology and evolution at the level of the organism, provides a rich arena for investigation on its own, but also plays a central role in answering conceptual questions about both ecology and evolution.
Ecology has been defined variously as “the study of the interrelationships of organisms with their environment and each other,” as “the economy of nature,” and as “the biology of ecosystems.”
