Populations that interact within a given habitat form a community. The number of species occupying the same habitat and their relative abundance is known as the diversity of the community. Areas with low species diversity, such as the glaciers of Antarctica, still contain a wide variety of living organisms, whereas the diversity of tropical rainforests is so great that it cannot be accurately assessed.

They may be intraspecific (within a species) or interspecific (between species). Antagonisms are interactions in which one or both organisms are harmed. In facilitation, at least one species benefits, and neither is harmed.

The variety of these species is referred to as biodiversity. Many organisms have developed defenses against predation and herbivory, including mechanical defenses, warning coloration, and mimicry. Two species cannot exist indefinitely in the same habitat competing directly for the same resources. Species may form symbiotic relationships such as commensalism, mutualism, or parasitism. Community structure is described by its fou

Because of the interactions the victim experiences a strong fitness cost while the enemy benefits. Exploitative interactions can have significant biological effects. For example predators or parasites may cause declines, or even the extinction, of their
