Habitats and Ecosystems
Explore the amazing world of habitats and ecosystems in this KS2 Science quiz! Learn how different organisms adapt to their environments.
Habitats and ecosystems are communities of plants and animals. For example, a grassland has plants in fertile soil, attracting insects that pollinate them. Birds, as predators, are attracted to the insects, and larger predators follow. All are adapted to life in the grassland. To protect species and encourage biodiversity, it's crucial for people and governments to safeguard habitats and ecosystems.
Can you spot how organisms adapt to different environments? Test your knowledge with this exciting Habitats and Ecosystems quiz!

Always wet
Frequently windy
Alternating between hot and cold

Mosses
Elephants
Holly and mosses are plants which need plenty of water so they are not found in deserts
10 .
Which of these is a danger to marine habitats?
