1) Both Earth and a house are places where living things reside and depend on for survival; just as a house provides shelter and resources for its inhabitants, Earth provides the environment and natural resources necessary for all living creatures to thrive.
2) Ecology studies how all living things interact with their environments, including how they react to climate, soil conditions, water availability, and the use of natural resources, as well as how living things affect each other.
3) You should buy Earth-friendly products because they help protect the environment and conserve Earth’s limited resources, even if they cost more, since long-term environmental health is more valuable than short-term savings.

5) One thing you could do today to help conserve resources is turn off lights and unplug appliances when they’re not in use to save energy.
