Detailed explanation-1: -The niche concept is one of the core concepts in ecology and has been rediscovered by modern ecology for explaining biodiversity and species coexistence patterns (Pocheville, 2015). The niche-based theory states that an ecological community is made up of a limited number of niches, each occupied by a single species.
Detailed explanation-2: -Biodiversity is the number of species found within a habitat or an ecosystem. When an ecosystem has high biodiversity it is always more stable than an ecosystem that has low biodiversity. A monoculture is when an ecosystem has only one prominent species and has very low biodiversity.
Detailed explanation-3: -In ecology, the term “niche” describes the role an organism plays in a community. A species’ niche encompasses both the physical and environmental conditions it requires (like temperature or terrain) and the interactions it has with other species (like predation or competition).
