Ecology
The study of organisms with one another and the physical surroundings.
There are many different parts that play into ecology with the largest being the ecosystem. Next is the community, then the population level.
Eco means home. So clearly ecology is a study of our home.
This also plays into the study of how organisms interact with the non-living factors in the environment. Like, If you get rid of rain forest, those rain forests are actually contributing to the lot of rain that's helping the farm land near the rain forest. Without the rain forest food production will begin to lower and results in up cutting out more rain forest to get more farm land. So it's really important that we understand this stuff.
