Autecology is the branch of ecology that focuses on the interactions of a single species with its non-living (abiotic) environment. It studies how an individual species adapts to its habitat, including factors like temperature, moisture, and nutrients.

  • (A) Ecology – A broad field studying interactions of organisms with their environment.
  • (C) Palaeontology – The study of fossils and ancient life forms.
  • (D) Synecology – The study of interactions within communities of different species, rather than focusing on a single species.
