environments
Where organisms exist
Environments is the plural of environment—the surroundings or conditions in which something exists or operates.
Physical environments include natural settings like forests or deserts, and built spaces like offices or homes.
Abstract environments describe conditions for activity: hostile work environments, learning environments, competitive business environments.
In computing, an environment is a configured system where software runs: development environment, testing environment.
