Answer:
Niche can be described as the role or position that a particular organism has in its ecosystem.
For example, honeybees which will gather nectar from flowers to make honey is an example of a niche. The particular role of honeybees in an ecosystem is to collect nectar in that ecosystem from different flowers and to produce honey. Other organisms living in the same environment will not perform the same function in the ecosystem.
Using kilometers in space is useless, as the distances between objects is drastically incred. A lightyear is 9.5 kilometers. It is simpler to say "Alpha Centauri is 4.1 light years away" than it is to say "Alpha Centauri is 28.95 Trillion kilometers away"<span />
<span>(I got this from my handbook dictionary)
"the tendency toward a relatively stable equilibrium between interdependent elements, especially as maintained by physiological processes."
What that basically means is that homeostasis is the ability to respond to certain environments. It is how you respond to environmental changes and how you basically adapt to it.. that's where the idea of response and adaption came from.
Hope this Helps!! (I had a quiz on this once) </span>
