Question

ecology n.生态学；生态 (1) 生态学帮助我们把握复杂问题。(2) 他开始研究生态学,并决心将他的一生献身于这门学科。(3) 化石可以让我们知道古时的生态环境。(4) 对生态的关心是最近才有的事。(5) 整个生态系统链正在遭到破坏。 The German zoologist Ernst Haeckel coined the word ecology almost 150 years ago, and it should come as no surprise — his being a serious scientist and all — that he combined a couple of Greek words to do it. Oikos means "habitation" and -ology means "the study of." So ecology started off as the study of where things live. More and more, though, the word is used interchangeably with environment.
