I assume the second option because the half sun half shade situation would provide the nutrients for the plants and at the same time nit half too much( since some plants need indirect sunlight and this is a good compromise) also glass is typically used in greenhouses and therefore would be my container of choice and fertilizer will assist in plant growth

Answer: Put water, fertilizer, soil, plants, and insects in an open, clear glass aquarium. Place it in an area that has some sunlight and some shade.

Explanation:

An ecosystem is a living environment in which living beings interact with their non-living physical environment. The living beings or biotic factors are like plants, animals, insects, microbes, birds and others. The non- living components or abiotic factors include sunlight, water, soil and others.

A simulation of a natural ecosystem can be created which mimic the biotic and abiotic factors of ecosystem.

According to the given situation, the open aquarium is the correct option. As this will ensure the interaction of the sunlight which is an abiotic factor with the plants. Other necessary abiotic factors water, soil and fertilizers will also support growth. Insects being biotic factor will be dependent on plant nutrients.
