Similar: They are made by proteins and glycoproteins like all the cells are. The also have DNA or RNA to reproduce and they also evolve to adapt.
Difference: They don't use the cell division phase and they are not alive.
The role a species plays in the ecosystem is called its niche.
No, that is completely impossible. The reasoning behind it is because if its a large group of fish they're swimming back and forth ect, ect, it would be like counting a bowl of rice, but not being able to take any out. To get around these counting problems, scientists take data from just a small portion of the population called a sample. They take several samples and then use the average size of those samples to calculate an estimate of the entire population size.

<h2>Cycads and Palm</h2>
Explanation:
The resemblance between cycads and palm trees is only superficial
- Cycads are basically woody plants which have roots, a stem, leaves and reproductive structures known as cones
- The main roots of cycads are thickened and fleshy and as they may have storage capacities they are often termed tuberous
- Along with the fleshy stem they may have contractile properties which serve to regulate the level of the stem in the ground
- Specialized, upright-growing, branched roots, known as coralloid roots, are also produced by all species of Cycads
- The stems of cycads may be completely subterranean or emerge from the ground and be trunk-like
- The leaves of most cycads are once-divided (pinnate) and often develop an attractive palm-like crown
- Palm trees are a type of evergreen plant belonging to the Arecaceae family of plants
- Palm trees have branch-less stems and large evergreen leaves
- Generally, leaves of palm trees are either pinnate (feather-like leaves) or palmate (fan-like fronds)
- Another way to identify the type of palm tree is by the trunk shape, some of the tallest species of palm trees have long slender single trunks and dwarf varieties have usually short fat palm trunks
- Some smaller palm tree species may have clustered trunks with 3 or 4 short trunks growing together
- There are also some dwarf palm trees that just have bushy pinnate fronds growing out the ground and don’t have any trunk at all
