What does the word "ecology"mean It was 1 by Ernst Haeckel, a German biologist. He joined two Greek words: "oikos", meaning "house", and"logie", meaning "the study of". Together they mean "the study of the house". The"house" Haeckel had in mind is our 2 Earth. Earth is home for all living things-humans, animals, plants, and even tiny microbes.

We have to find the right 9 ."
"I get it," the boy said. "We need the forest's10for wood and paper or we might not have desks or notebooks for school."
"Exactly-and school is a good place to learn about ecology, added the ecologist."Then you will know how to protect the natural environment."
