Detailed explanation-3: -Ecology is the study of the relationships between living organisms, including humans, and their physical environment; it seeks to understand the vital connections between plants and animals and the world around them.

Detailed explanation-4: -Biogeography is a broad and holistic science that examines spatial patterns of biological diversity. Biogeography is a subfield of the discipline of geography (or biology, depending on area of specialization), the study of the spatial distribution of phenomena over the earth.

Detailed explanation-5: -Biogeography is the study of the distribution of plants, animals, bacteria, and fungi on Earth both in history and in the present day.
