A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Ecology and habitat concepts

Ecology and habitat concepts focus on the relationships between organisms and their physical surroundings, including the definitions of habitat, niche, and the roles of biotic and abiotic factors. Mastery of these ideas is essential for the exam because they underpin questions on disease ecology, vector habitats, and environmental determinants of health.
