Why do different habitats have different types of organisms?

Different habitats have different types of organisms because each habitat provides specific environmental conditions, such as temperature, water availability, food sources, shelter, and space. Organisms survive in habitats where their body features and behaviours are suitable for those conditions.

For example, fish have body structures adapted for living in water, while desert animals have features that help them manage heat and limited water. Similarly, plants growing in mountains, deserts, and aquatic environments have different characteristics based on their surroundings.

The variation in habitat conditions leads to different adaptations, which results in different types of organisms living in different places.
