INTRODUCTION The concept of ecological niche can be considered as one of the most important theoretical background in ecology. This was developed over several decades by various researchers in the world. The development process of the niche concept primarily tried to answer basic observational questions such as why does an organism perform as it does? why does it live where it lives? why does it eat what it eats? how do organisms interact with one another? which organisms can coexist with one another

In particular, the most ostensible variances are apparent in the approach and tone employed by each writer, which culminate to reveal that our individual perceptions and thought greatly impact the composition of our works, and can

I claim it is difficult to apply either globalization or localization in terms of spatial sociology because both concepts have positive effects and negative effects individually. Firstly, this paper will explore what space is sociologically and define it. Secondly, this paper will also define globalization and localization by using sociological terms.

“produce (a picture or diagram) by making lines and marks on paper with a pencil, pen, etc.” The boundaries of this traditional definition of drawing, however have begun to be pushed by conceptual artists who look rather to see drawing in the way that Henri Matisse did, as: “the precision of thought,” thus expanding the definition of drawing to encompass unconventional drawings that may be three-dimensional or created on surfaces other than paper with marks being made in mediums that range from carbon
