What Are Native, Indigenous and Endemic Species?

Native Species The term native species refers to plants and animals that live in a particular area purely by reason of naturally occurring phenomenon. These organisms have not been influenced by any type of human behavior or intervention. Native plants may come to grow in specific areas due to an array of environmental factors such as their seeds being blown there by the wind, the natural process of evolution, or even being carried from region to region by animals. Once settled into their new environments native plants and animals eventually adjust to their surroundings, evolve, and become features of the local landscape. The term “native” refers to an organism which is found in a localized area and inhabits a small ecosystem. It is important to remember, however, that plants and animals can be considered native to several regions as opposed to being confined to just one specific geographical location. A particular species of plant or animal may be native to a certain country but considered as indigenous only to a specific area within that country. An example of a native species in regards to animals is the koala. This particular marsupial is native to Australia and was not introduced to the country by any type of human activity or intervention. The koala has naturally evolved and adapted to its habitat in various ways including making its home in Australia’s Eucalyptus forest areas where it subsists on a diet primarily made up of the leaves of this particular variety of t...

Population limited to a particular area is known as .

Endemic means a species which is native to a place and is not found anywhere else in the world. Endemic basically means indigenous. The more endemic species at a place more is the biodiversity of that place. For example, the Nilgiri tahr also known as Nilgiri Ibex is endemic to the Nilgiri Hills and some part of Western Ghats of Kerala.

Fill in the blanks: (a) A place where animals are protected in their natural habitat is called a fill in the blank (b) Species found only in a particular area are known as fill in the blank (c) Migratory birds fly to faraway places because of fill in the blank changes. Q&A

Sanctuary: • A place where wildlife animals are protected in their natural habitat, no type of killing and poaching is done in these areas. • The habitat of these animals is also protected here. • These are a type of in-situ conservation. • In India, we have Bharatpur wildlife sanctuary in Rajasthan, Chilkla bird sanctuary in Odisha, and Gir national wildlife sanctuary in Gujrat, and many more sanctuaries are present. Final answer: A place where animals are protected in their natural habitat is called a sanctuary.

Fill in the blanks. a A place where animals are protected in their natural habitat is called . b Species found only in a particular area are known as . c Migratory birds fly to faraway places because of changes.

Explanation of correct answers: a) Wildlife sanctuary: • An area where animal habitats and their surroundings are provided protection from any kind of interference is referred to as a wildlife sanctuary. Animal trapping, killing, and poaching are outright forbidden in some areas. They want to provide the animals with a nice life. • In India, there are now 565 wildlife sanctuaries that occupy 122560.85 km2, or 3.73 percent, of the nation's total land area. In the Protected Area Network Report, 218 additional sanctuaries totaling 16,829 km2 are suggested. b) Endemic species: • In biology, the term "endemism" refers to the geographic distribution of a taxon that is only present naturally in a narrow geographic region. As a result, endemic species are those that only exist in a particular region, such as a mountain range, lake, island, etc. • Paleoendemism and neoendemism are the two forms of endemism. Paleoendemism describes a species that once inhabited a broad region but now only inhabits a smaller one. c) Climate: The loss of habitats is one of the main consequences of climate change. Due to rising temperatures, floods, or desertification, the habitats that migrating birds rely on might alter or perhaps vanish. For example, migratory birds require coastal wetland habitats for breeding and feeding. Final answer: (a) A place where animals are protected in their natural habitat is called a wildlife sanctuary. (b) Species found only in a particular area are referred to as ende...

Hint:It originates from the Greek endemos, which combines en that means ‘in’ and demos, which means ‘population.’ The example of this species is kangaroos which are found only in Australia. Complete answer: First we should know about biodiversity to answer this question. Biodiversity applies to the organisms or creatures that live on Earth. Biodiversity discusses their interrelationships and environmental relationships. A variety of animals, plants, and microorganisms are included. The plants present in a specific area are referred to as the flora area. The animals found in a given region are tamed to be the fauna of that region. Now, let us find the solution from the options- Species occurring only in a single region are classified as endemic species. Sometimes, endemic species are endangered. Naturally, they are not found anywhere else. Endemic species are not listed in the red list, since those species whose continued survival is at risk are included in the red list. Pandemic species are widely distributed across a nation or continent. Those species which live outside their natural environment are exotic species. Thus, the correct answer is option (A) Endemic Note:The species that are found in particular areas are Galapagos tortoises and Madagascar lemurs, can be found on small islands. Antarctic Hawaii and Australia are both massive land masses, where we will encounter numerous endemic species. These sites are all endemic to polar bears, kangaroos, and koalas.

Endemic Species

Endemic species Endemic species are plants and animals that exist only in one geographic region. Species can be endemic to large or small areas of the earth: some are endemic to a particular continent, some to part of a continent, and others to a single island. Usually an area that contains endemic species is isolated in some way, so that species have difficulty spreading to other areas, or it has unusual environmental characteristics to which endemic species are uniquely adapted. Endemism, or the occurrence of endemic animals and plants, is more common in some regions than in others. In isolated environments such as the Hawaiian Islands , Australia , and the southern tip of Africa, as many of 90% of naturally occurring species are endemic. In less isolated regions, including Europe and much of Biologists who study endemism do not only consider species, the narrowest classification of living things; they also look at higher level classifications of genus, family, and order. These hierarchical classifications are nested so that, in most cases, an order of plants or animals contains a number of families, each of these families includes several genera (plural of "genus"), and each genus has a number of species. These levels of classification are known as "taxonomic" levels. Species is the narrowest taxonomic classification, with each species closely adapted to its particular environment . Therefore species are often endemic to small areas and local environmental conditions. G...
