Difference between Kelp forest and Keystone species

Kelp forest vs. Keystone species

Kelp forests are underwater areas with a high density of kelp. A keystone species is a species that has a disproportionately large effect on its environment relative to its abundance.

Similarities between Kelp forest and Keystone species

Kelp forest and Keystone species have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Biodiversity, Ecosystem, Ecosystem engineer, Herbivore, Holdfast, Kelp, Plant, Sea otter, Sea urchin, Starfish.
