Natural habitats: JAMB Biology Past Questions and Answers

What the JAMB syllabus covers in Natural habitats

Our summary: Water and land habitats, the organisms found in them and how they are adapted.

  • Aquatic (e.g. ponds, streams, lakes, seashores and mangrove swamps.)
  • Terrestrial/arboreal (e.g. tree-tops, abandoned farmland or a dry grassy (savanna) field, and burrow or hole.)

Objectives

  • associate plants and animals with each of these habitats.
  • relate adaptive features to the habitats in which organisms live.
