Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the key focus of the question.
The question asks for the term representing the physical location where an organism lives along with its abiotic surroundings.
Basic ecological terminology distinguishes between physical space (habitat) and functional role (niche).
2
Compare basic ecological definitions.
Habitat represents the 'address' of an organism. Niche refers to its 'profession' or functional role. Ecotone is a boundary region between ecosystems, and Biome is a macro-regional unit.
Matching structural definitions ensures accurate identification of basic ecosystem concepts.
