    Study Notes

    Main Goal of Ecology

    • The primary aim of ecology is to study the interactions between living organisms and their environment.

    Ecological Factors

    • Biotic factors include living components such as plants and animals that influence behavior.
    • Abiotic factors consist of non-living environmental variables, like temperature, humidity, and soil composition, impacting behaviors and survival.

    Composition of True Soil

    • True soil is composed of minerals, organic matter, water, and air, each contributing to its fertility and ecosystem function.

    Edaphic Factors

    • Edaphic factors pertain to soil properties and characteristics, including soil composition, texture, pH, and moisture, affecting plant growth and distribution.

    Physiographic Factors

    • Physiographic factors refer to geographical elements, including latitudes, altitudes, and the steepness of mountains, influencing climate and local habitats.
