Explanation / Answer

32. Semelparous.

Semelparous organisms reproduce only once in their lives.

33. Abiotic condition

Fundamental niche of a species is based only on abiotic factors whereas realized niche is based on both biotic and abiotic factors.

34. Metapopulation

a set of spatially isolated populations linked by dispersal of individuals is known as a metapopulation.

35. Trophic cascade

A trophic cascade occurs when a species is added to or removed from a community and causes a change in abundance of organism in all other trophic levels.

Example when a predator is added, the number of prey decreases and the following trophic levels get affected.
