Ecologists are the persons who study the interrelationships between organisms and their environments. Like they research upon the species found in forests or deserts interact with each other and as well as their surroundings.
They test whether a species is occupying its complete fundamental niche or only a portion of it by observing if the species are expanding their range after the removal of a competitor because two species with the same fundamental niche will exclude other competing species.

Corrosion is when weather weakens and brakes apart rocks. An example would be the rocks at the beach that eventually begin to form holes and loose its mass due to the constant corrosion from the sand, water, and wind.
Answer:
The cork cambium is a natural insulator that protects woody plants from an hostile environment.

The cork Cambium is a tissue that belongs to the epidermis, it is responsible for the secundary growth in the plant and replaces the epidermis in roots and stems. The cork cambium also protects the plant from overhydration, it is waterproof and has really selective ways to let the water into the plant (apoplastic and symplastic pathway).
There is some special plants in the coast of the tropical area called mangrooves, these plants has really specialized cork cambium that controls not only the water levels but also the salt levels into the plant.
The cork cambium is really important because protects and regulates the plant and its environment.
They were completely heterophic in nature because it allowed them to absorb different material from the environment as an energy source
