The dwelling place of an organism is known as the habitat.

A habitat is a place where a living being makes its home. A habitat catches all the environmental conditions an organism requires to exist.

An organism gets everything from its habitat, for example, food, shelter, mate, etc.

Types of Habitats: Habitats are of two types. These include micro and macro habitats.

A microhabitat is a small environment in which a particular organism survives.

[{"selector":"#anim-da1f30b5-738e-437f-85f1-13bc9b2b63d8","keyframes":{"opacity":[1,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1300,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4389bf25-62ba-470d-a8b7-76be195a326f","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(3)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1300,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Microhabitats have unique conditions and have single organisms or more.

Coniferous forest, smooth bark, rotten wood and damaged bark are examples of microhabitats.
