Difference Between Primary Succession and Secondary Succession

Last updated on September 14, 2017 by Divanshi G

Primary Succession can be defined as the process of growth in an area that was previously uninhabited, barren, unoccupied and there was no initial vegetation. On the other hand, Secondary Succession can be defined as the growth of the community in such area which was previously occupied, inhabited and that has primary vegetation but got disturbed or damaged due to some external or internal factors. The example of Primary Succession is the newly formed bare rock, desert, ponds, etc., while the … [Read more...]

Difference Between Abiotic and Biotic Factors

Last updated on March 29, 2022 by Divanshi G

We can divide the ecosystem into two main categories: abiotic and biotic, based on whether they are living or non-living. Our ecosystem acts as a platform that portrays the interaction between the biotic and abiotic factors. The biotic factors include the living components that can grow, survive and adapt. Whereas the abiotic factors are simply the non-living elements of the environment. They tend to impact the rate of growth, survival and adaptation of the biotic components. Thus, you can … [Read more...]

Difference Between Phytoplankton and Zooplankton

Last updated on September 14, 2017 by Divanshi G

The basic difference between phytoplankton and zooplankton is that the word 'phyto' is used for the small plants like diatoms and algae and word 'zoo' is used for the small animals like tiny fish, crustaceans, which are the weak swimmers and just move along the currents. The word "plankton" refers to the smallest aquatic plants or animals that float and drift in the limnetic zone of water bodies. Planktons are divided into two categories where one is called as permanent plankton and the other … [Read more...]

Difference Between Habitat and Niche

Last updated on April 8, 2022 by Divanshi G

A habitat is a place that provides the organism with its basic need of air, water, food and shelter. The organism living in a particular habitat utilises all the resources available in the surrounding for survival. Whereas the niche is the sub-part of any habitat. It is a small place or position that a particular species holds in the ecosystem according to its functional role. It basically defines how an organism responds to the availability and distribution of resources, predation, … [Read more...]

Difference Between Ecosystem and Community

Last updated on June 4, 2019 by Divanshi G

The basic difference between Ecosystem and Community is that Ecosystem consists of various communities which include living as well as non-living components interacting with each other, whereas interaction of different individuals of populations of different species living in a particular geographical area is called Community. The community consists of only biotic factors only. Our Earth is the only planet comprising life from the microscopic organisms to the large animal.To understand life … [Read more...]

Difference Between Convergent and Divergent Evolution

Last updated on September 9, 2017 by Divanshi G

When two or more different species developed similar characteristics due to adaptation to the particular environment, but they do not belong to the same ancestors are kept under Convergent Evolution. While divergent evolution is the phenomenon in which two species have common ancestors, but develops different characteristics due to changes in the environment which they adapt slowly and hence gives rise to new species. Our Earth is accomplished with numerous life, which can be in the form of a … [Read more...]
