Question

What are the differences between microhabitat and microbiome?

Answer 1

Answer: Differences between microhabitat and microbiome-

A microhabitat is a smaller habitat within a larger one. It differs in characters from the surrounding, larger habitat. For example, a tidal pool at a beach. A much smaller habitat than the whole beach or ocean itself, it is a smaller, more specialized habitat for the organisms living within it. A microbiome is the microbes, such as bacteria or fungi or viruses, that reside/live on an animal.

Fun fact: the human microbiome can weigh up to 5 lbs and have 200 times more genetic material than said human.
