An ecosystem comprises the physical environment.

It is an interlinked system with the plants and animals living therein linked to each other.

Ecosystems have evolved over a period of thousands of years.

Some examples of interlinking are

(i) Insects help in pollination of crops and fruit trees. Some insects also exert biological control on harmful insects.

(ii) Carnivorous animals kill herbivorous animals for food and herbivorous animals consume plants for food.

(iii) Decomposers like fungi and bacteria fertilise the soil with humus by decomposing dead animals and plants to enable plants to grow. There are many such examples of interlinking to show that every species has a role to play in the ecosystem.

Thus, we can conclude that every species has a role to play in the ecosystem

Where would you be most likely to find a freshet?
valentinak56 [21]

The freshet is basically a flood that occurs because of heavy rainfall or because of the melting of a snow.

This type of flooding is most common in the valleys of the larger rivers, especially the ones that start their flow high in the mountains.

The large rivers have much more water, and they also have lot of tributaries, so when there's a heavy rainfall they receive enormous amounts of water, which easily causes a flood.

Also, when the snow melts, lot of water is released from it, and most of that water gets into the river, or first in its tributaries and that in it, so there's a high possibility of a big flood occurring suddenly.

PLEASE HELP!!
MrRissso [65]

Corporations are often accused of despoiling the environment in their quest for profit. Free enterprise is supposedly incompatible with environmental preservation so that government regulation is required.

Such thinking is the basis for current proposals to expand environmental regulation greatly. So many new controls have been proposed and enacted that the late economic journalist Warren Brookes once forecast that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) could well become "the most powerful government agency on earth, involved in massive levels of economic, social, scientific, and political spending and interference.

But if the profit motive is the primary cause of pollution, one would not expect to find much pollution in socialist countries, such as the former Soviet Union, China, and in the former Communist countries of Eastern and Central Europe. That is, in theory. In reality, exactly the opposite is true: The socialist world suffers from the worst pollution on earth. Could it be that free enterprise is not so incompatible with environmental protection after all?

  • As sunrise and sunset are defined by the upper limb of the solar disk. These conditions produce patterns of night and day as the sun appears to move just above the horizon at an angle of 0.39 degrees per day as the equinox passes.
