Habitat - A habitat is a place where an organism makes its home. A habitat meets all the environmental conditions an organism needs to survive.

Biotic factor - A biotic factor is a living organism that shapes its environment. In a freshwater ecosystem, examples might include aquatic plants, fish, amphibians, and algae.

Abiotic factor - An abiotic factor is a nonliving part of an ecosystem that shapes its environment. In a terrestrial ecosystem, examples might include temperature, light, and water.

Optimal range - Optimal ranges are evidence-based ranges that are associated with the lowest risk of disease and mortality.
