How would you experimentally determine whether an organism is a keystone species?
A keystone species is a species that has a disproportionately large effect on its environment relative to its abundance. Such species play a critical role in maintaining the structure of an ecological community, affecting many other organisms in an ecosystem and helping to determine the types and numbers of

About Organism
Any type of life is an organism. All organisms are capable of response to stimuli, reproduction, growth and development, and maintenance of homoeostasis as a stable whole.
About Species
Species are able to reproduce, and is also the most specific major classification in biology. Living things that are very alike are still considered separate species if they cannot mate and produce fertile offspring.
