B4.2.1—Ecological niche Topic Practice
Practise explaining ecological niche as a species’ role, using feeding, habitat, timing and interactions to compare organisms in ecosystems.
How this is tested
- explain niche as the full role of a species within its ecosystem
- suggest ways niches differ, such as food source, predators, timing or nesting site
- link habitat, abiotic factors and feeding relationships to a species’ role
