A habitat is the natural environment where an animal or plant lives, including the physical features and conditions that support its survival. Different habitats—such as coral reefs, ice shelves, and alpine regions—each support distinct groups of species that have adapted to thrive in those particular conditions.

In ecology, habitat refers to the array of resources, biotic factors that are present in an area, such as to support the survival and reproduction of a particular species. A species' habitat can be seen as the physical manifestation of its ecological niche. Thus "habitat" is a species-specific term, fundamentally different from concepts such as environment or vegetation assemblages, for which the term "habitat-type" is more appropriate.
