Answer:

The level of productivity is influenced by two main factors:

*The availability of the resources needed for photosynthesis

*The diversity of the ecosystem.

Explanation:

The productivity in an ecosystem is related to the growth rate of the organisms living in an ecosystem. Productivity determines how many of an ecosystem´s resources we can use. Because when we take them faster than they are produced we can certainly damage the diversity in the ecosystem. By maintaining a sustainable ecosystem we should keep a balance in the rate we take resources with the rate they are made. 

Photosynthesis requires sunlight, carbon dioxide, water, and nutrients. The productivity of an ecosystem depends on the good production of these resources. The lack of any could limit productivity. Diversity influences productivity by ensuring the efficient use of resources. Complementing interactions between species, assuring the presence of architecture species and increasing ecosystem resilience disturbance events, like storms, fires that occur naturally in an ecosystem.

What forms in the areas where oceanic plates diverge and new seafloor is created?
Ymorist [56]

Divergent boundaries in the middle of the ocean contribute to seafloor spreading. As plates made of oceanic crust pull apart, a crack in the ocean floor appears. Magma then oozes up from the mantle to fill in the space between the plates, forming a raised ridge called a mid-ocean ridge.
