Habitat refers to the natural environment where an organism lives and provides everything it needs to survive, including food, shelter, and mates. There are three main types of habitat: freshwater, marine, and coastal. Freshwater habitats include rivers, lakes, and streams, while marine habitats are the oceans and seas. Coastal habitats are where land and sea meet. Major habitats include forests, grasslands, deserts, mountains, polar regions, and aquatic habitats. Habitat can be affected by both natural changes like fires or drought as well as human-caused changes like habitat loss.

1. Habitat
Habitat is a place where an organism makes its home. A habitat meets all the environmental
conditions an organism needs to survive. For an animal, that means everything it needs to find
and gather food, select a mate, and successfully reproduce.

How does habitat affect us?
Habitat loss, especially removal of plants and trees which stabilize soil, increases erosion, and
reduces the nutrient levels in terrestrial ecosystems. This, in turn, can decrease agricultural
productivity. In turn, increasing erosion decreases water quality by increasing sediment and
pollutants in rivers and streams.
How can habitat change?
Habitat change can occur naturally through droughts, disease, fire, hurricanes, mudslides,
volcanoes, earthquakes, slight increases or decreases in seasonal temperature or precipitation,
etc.
What are the uses of habitat?
Habitat use is the way an animal uses the physical and biological resources in a habitat.
Habitat may be used for foraging, cover, nesting, escape, denning, or other life history traits.
These categories (e.g., foraging, escape) divide habitat but overlap occurs in some areas.
