    This document defines ecosystems and their components. An ecosystem is a community of living organisms that interact with each other and their non-living environment. Ecosystems have biotic components, which are living things like producers, consumers, and decomposers. They also have abiotic components, which are non-living things in the environment like climate, soil, and topography that influence the ecosystem. Some examples of ecosystems provided are tropical rainforests, temperate forests, grasslands, deserts, tundra, and coral reefs. The document concludes with tips on how to take good care of ecosystems, such as reducing waste, volunteering for cleanups, educating others, and conserving resources like water and energy

    Ecosystem

    By: Group 6
    Ecosystem Introduction

    What is Ecosystem?

    An ecosystem is a large community of living organisms


    (plants, animals and microbes) in a particular area.
    The living and physical components are linked together through
    nutrient cycles and energy flows. Ecosystems are of any size,
    but usually they are in particular places.

    Ecosystem is considered the basic structural and functional


    unit of ecology.
    Components of Ecosystem

    Biotic Abiotic
    Biotic Components

    (Living Things)
    The Biotic components in an ecosystem are
    bound together by a need for food. Based on
    their roles in the feeding relationship, they are
    basically classified into major groups.
    Three Major Groups of Biotic
    Components
    Producers: Organisms that have ability to
    manufacture their own food from simple
    inorganic substances
    Consumers: Referred to as heterotrophs ,
    from Greek words heteros meaning
    “other” and trophikos, meaning “nursing”
    or “feeding”.
    Decomposers: is an organism that
    decomposes, or breaks down, organic
    material such as the remains of dead
    organisms.
    Abiotic Components

    The basic features of any ecosystem are


    determined to a large extent by its
    abiotic or nonliving components.

    In terrestrial ecosystems, three major


    factors constitute these abiotic
    components, namely: “climate, soil, and
    topography”
    Three Major Factors of Abiotic
    Components
    Climate: factors that have significant
    effects on the ecosystem are light,
    temperature, water and wind.
    Edaphic Factors: pertain to “soil
    factors”, They include mineral
    nitrients, moisture content and
    acidity of the soil.
    Topography: The surface relief of the
    land or topography is another
    aspect of the physical environtment
    which influences the distribution of
    biotic communities on land.
    Kinds of Ecosystem
    Kinds of Ecosystem
    This are the types of Ecosystem:
    Tropical Rainforest Ecosystems
    Temperate Forest Ecosystems
    Taiga Ecosystems
    Grassland Ecosystems
    Desert Ecosystems
    Tundra Ecosystems
    Stillwater Ecosystems
    River and Stream Ecosystems
    Littoral Zones
    Coral Reefs
    How to take good care of our ecosystem?

     Reduce, reuse, and recycle. Cut down on what you throw away. Follow the three
    "R's" to conserve natural resources and landfill space.
     Volunteer. Volunteer for cleanups in your community. You can get involved in
    protecting your watershed, too.
     Educate. When you further your own education, you can help others understand the
    importance and value of our natural resources.
     Conserve water. The less water you use, the less runoff and wastewater that
    eventually end up in the ocean.
     Choose sustainable
     Shop wisely. Buy less plastic and bring a reusable shopping bag.
     Use long-lasting light bulbs. Energy efficient light bulbs reduce greenhouse gas
    emissions. Also flip the light switch off when you leave the room!
     Plant a tree. Trees provide food and oxygen. They help save energy, clean the air, and
    help combat climate change.
     Don't send chemicals into our waterways. Choose non-toxic chemicals in the home
    and office.

    We can take good care of our ecosystem by doing this but we can
    take good care of it by disciplining our selves and respecting the
    environment and joining some activities about ecosystem or
    environment.
