Question

How does a habitad differ from an ecosystem

Answer 1

Answer:

• An ecosystem consists of a community of organisms together with their physical environment.

• Ecosystems can be of different sizes and can be marine, aquatic, or terrestrial. Broad categories of terrestrial ecosystems are called biomes.

• In ecosystems, both matter and energy are conserved. Energy flows through the system—usually from light to heat—while matter is recycled.

• Ecosystems with higher biodiversity tend to be more stable with greater resistance and resilience in the face of disturbances, or disruptive events.

Habitats
