habitat


Explanation:
A habitat (which is Latin for "it inhabits") is an ecological or environmental area that is inhabited by a particular species.

Etymology: Latin, it inhabits, from habitare
1: the place or environment where a plant or animal naturally or normally lives and grows
2: the place where something is commonly found

As I know it.
