What is the difference between the biotic and the abiotic part of an environment? Give examples of each.
living part of an ecosystem versus non-living parts of the environment: plants, animals versus rock, soil, air

What is the difference between a habitat and a niche?
A habitat is the food, water, shelter, that an organism needs to survive adn reproduce. The niche is how that organism uses the food, water, and shelter.
200
The 2 Domains and how the organisms in each are different.
Prokaryotic (organisms that have cells with free moving DNA) and Eukaryotic (organisms with cells that have DNA contained in a nucleus)

What is an organism that eats only meat and an organism that eats only plants called?
a carnivore and an herbivore
300
What is the difference between an exoskeleton and an endoskeleton? Give an example of an organism for each.
An exoskeleton is hard outer structure, such as the shell of an insect or crustacean, that provides protection or support for an organism: arachnids, insects An endoskeleton is an inner support structure such as bones: humans, snakes, turtles.

eukaryotic

Define symbiosis and give an example.
Symbiosis is a relationship between organisms where one or both organisms benefit from the relationship. An example is with the clown fish and the protection the anenome gives it.
