Concept in Definition ABC

A habitat is that environment or space that is occupied by a certain population biological, which resides, reproduces and perpetuates its existence there because it offers all the necessary conditions to do so, that is, she feels comfortable in it because she meets all her expectations. The question of comfort turns out to be a condition without equanom for a biological population to settle or not in a certain habitat, it may be that some are not suitable or comfortable for some reason and then that population would not feel comfortable, causing its development to not be efficient.

There are different types of habitats, which will be determined by climatic, environmental and geographical characteristics. A Meadow, the desert, the Mountain, a polar region, a river, a swamp, a ocean and a coral reef are some of the habitats in which a wide variety of animal and plant species live, coexist and develop.

For example and in relation to what we said at the beginning, regarding that the best habitat for one species may not be for another, we we find that for a bacterium, a pool of water that forms in a corner or street of a city will be its best habitat, as long as Contrary to this situation, the mentioned puddle will not be the correct habitat for an animal such as the lion to develop, grow and survive. For the latter the ideal could be a meadow in the middle of Africa.

The habitat has a calendar date in which it is remembered and celebrated worldwide, it was set on the 6th of October and as it happens with other dates that also have an international scope, such as the International Day of the disease AIDS, on World Habitat Day, what is sought is to treat the human species, sometimes so prone to modify natural habitats as a consequence of some harmful practices that it displays, such as be the contamination, cutting down trees or production avoid fires to ensure the durability of most habitats.
