Ecological Niche refers to

  • A.Interaction between man and environment
  • B.The functional role of an organism in the ecosystem
  • C.Interdependence of man and plant
  • D.None of the above

Answer: B

The ecological niche is the functional role of an organism in the ecosystem: what it eats, how and when it feeds, and how it relates to other species and to its habitat. Habitat is the address of a species and the niche is its profession.

Interaction between man and environment and the interdependence of man and plants are matters of human ecology and not of a species' niche. Since option B gives the standard definition, 'none of the above' is wrong.
