Human Ecology is the study of the relationship between humans and their environment, including the effects of human activities on the environment and the effects of the environment on human health and well-being.

Culture is a product of human activity and is not a component of the natural environment.

Adaptation is the process by which humans modify their environment to meet their needs.

Biological adaptation is a change in the genetic makeup of a population over time in response to environmental pressures. It is not a type of human adaptation.

Assimilation is the process by which humans become more similar to the culture of the dominant group in a society.

Natural ecosystems are not created or modified by humans. They are ecosystems that exist without human intervention.

Enculturation is the process by which humans learn the values, beliefs, and behaviors of their culture.

Climate change is a natural process that has been occurring for millions of years. It is not a type of human impact on the environment.

Environmental Health is the study of the relationship between human health and the environment.

Noise pollution is not a type of environmental health hazard. It is a type of nuisance.

Sustainability is the process by which humans reduce their impact on the environment.

Driving a car is not a type of sustainable practice. It is a type of activity that contributes to environmental pollution.

Restoration is the process by which humans restore damaged ecosystems to their natural state.

Deserts are not a type of restored ecosystem. They are a type of natural ecosystem.

Preservation is the process by which humans protect natural ecosystems from human activity.
