Explanation:
Ecosystems include all the biotic, physical, and chemical components of nature, continuously interacting and depending on each other. The ecosystem is composed of living beings and non-living things that interact and depend on each other. These are the biotic and abiotic factors.
A few examples of abiotic factors are solar light, minerals, water, air, gases, soil, and humidity.
Examples of biotic factors are plants, animals, insects, microorganisms, etc.
An example of an ecosystem in my locality is the native forest in the hills.
The forest is composed of many vegetable species, among which we may find trees, shrubs, herbs, grasses. We can also find lichens and fungi. Many mammal species such as little rodents, foxes, puma. Many bird species, among which we can find owls and some other birds of prey. There are different kinds of snakes and reptiles. There are amphibian species near the shore of the river that is crossing the forest. The soil is quite fertile, providing nutrients to the organisms. There is too much organic matter of vegetable origin, such as leaves or fallen and dead trees. Many microorganisms live in this dead matter. Insects are everywhere. There are some steep slopes in which stones, rocks, and tree roots hold the ground.
