Ecophysiology
Ecophysiology is the study of the relationship between an organism and its environment, focusing on how physiological processes are influenced by ecological factors such as temperature, light, and nutrient availability. This field explores how organisms adapt to their surroundings in order to survive and thrive in different habitats. Researchers in ecophysiology examine how environmental variations impact an organism's metabolism, growth, reproduction, and overall fitness. By studying these interactions, scientists can gain insight into the mechanisms underlying species distributions, population dynamics, and ecosystem functioning.
