Just as biology is assembled from various parts‚ so can ecology be studied at different levels‚ from organism to biome to biosphere. Most ecologists‚ however‚ work from the level of population through biome. Ecology has increasingly moved towards the realization that organism’s traits and activities are vital for understanding community dynamics and ecosystem processes‚

Ecology Essay African lions play a big role in the ecosystem. They are at the top of the food chain and are responsible for 85% of predation in their habitat. They prey on herbivores such as buffalo‚ antelope and zebras. The African lion’s biome is in the tropical grassland and their habitat is the grassy plains of the African savanna. Without the lion‚ the ecosystem would be unbalanced and unstable. The African lion‚ being at the top of the food chain‚ interacts with other organisms in many
