Factors that affect/shape/mould an ecosystem?
What is ecology? Eco- means home, logy- means the study of.
An ecosystem is: The interplay of living and nonliving factors of where we live.
The Biomes are: 1. Boreal Forest (taiga), 2. Desert, 3. Tundra, 4. Grassland, 5. Temperate Rain Forest, 6. Tropical Rain Forest, 7. Temperate Deciduous, 8. (Permanent Ice(?)).
The first set of factors are abiotic (non-living): Temperature, rain, etc.
The second set of factors are biotic (living): Animal interactions, etc.
Abiotic: They are the factors that create the conditions of an ecosystem. They are: temperature, precipitation, latitude, elevation, proximity to large bodies of water, substrate and topography.
Biotic: They are the things that populate the ecosystems. They are the relationships between the plants, animals and bacteria in an ecosystems.
