Question

Which term best describes all of the different species of insects living in a rainforest

Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is a number of communities.

Population can be defined as a group of all members of a particular species living in a specific geographic region whereas a community is the population or group of all species that are inhabited in the particular geographic region. Habitat refers to the physical surroundings where a particular species can be found or lives. The two or more populations of any species can be separated by a large geographic distance but live in similar type of habitat. A niche is simply the occupation of any organism.

Therefore, the term that best describes all of the different species of insects living in a rain forest is a number of communities.

Answer 2

A number of communities would not make sense, so the answer is a number of populations.
