1) The document discusses biological diversity and interdependence between species within an ecosystem. It defines key terms like niche and different types of symbiotic relationships between species like mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism. 2) Species can coexist in the same habitat through resource partitioning, where they divide resources like occupying different areas of the same tree or feeding on different parts of the tree. 3) Variation within species enables closely related organisms to survive in the same ecosystem by occupying different niches.
