Study Notes

Living world refers to the diverse ecosystems and organisms that sustain life on Earth. This article focusing on the subtopics of biodiversity, ecosystems, adaptation, classification, and ecology, aim to:

Biodiversity: The variety of living organisms within a given area, which includes plants, animals, fungi, and other living things. Biodiversity can be found in different ecosystems, such as tropical rainforests, alpine mountains, and dry deserts
Ecosystems: A community of organisms living together in combination with their abiotic and biotic features, such as deserts, grasslands, and rainforests
Adaptation: The ability of organisms to change their features or processes to adapt to their living conditions, such as the Cape Floristic Region in South Africa, which is home to about 6,200 plant species found nowhere else in the world
Adaptation: The ability of organisms to change their features or processes to adapt to their living conditions, such as the Cape Floristic Region in South Africa, which is home to about 6,200 plant species found nowhere else in the world
