What is lotic habitat?

A. Standing or still water habitat

B. Marine habitat

C. Running water habitat

D. Stagnant water

Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Lotic refers to flowing water, from the Latin lotus, past participle of lavere, to wash. Lotic ecosystems can be contrasted with lentic ecosystems, which involve relatively still terrestrial waters such as lakes and ponds. Together, these two fields form the more general study area of freshwater or aquatic ecology.
