• Ecosystem

• Major four types

• Grassland Ecosystem

• Aquatic Ecosystem

• Forest Ecosystem

• Desert Ecosystem

Ecosystem

• An ecosystem is a biological environment consisting of all the living organisms or Biotic component, in a particular area, and the nonliving, or Abiotic component such as air, soil, water and sunlight with which the organisms interact

ABIOTIC

FACTORS

Biotic

• Sunlight

• Tempreture

• Precipitatio

• Water or Moisture

• Soil or Chemical content

Abiotic

• Primary producer

• Hervivorus

• Carniorous

• Omnivorus

• Detritivorous

Types of Ecosystem

Artificial

Terres-trial

Micro-bial Aquatic

Forest Ecosystem

• High rainfall

•Large number of organism and flora

• Highly diverse population

• Stability of ecosystem is very sensitive

Types of Forest

• Tropical evergreen forest

• Tropical deciduous forest

• Temperate evergreen forest

• Temperate deciduous forest

• Taiga

Features of Forest Ecosystem

• Forest canopy

• Forest floor

• Forest soil

Funtion of forest ecosystem

• Watershed Protection

• Atmospheric regulation

• Soil Erosion Control

• Wind Erosion Control

Desert Ecosystem

• High temperature, intense sunlight and low water

• Flora and fauna are very poorly developed and scarce

• Organisms are xeric adaptive

• Scarely populated

Types of desert

• Sand desert

• Stony desert

• Rock desert

• Plateau desert

• Mountain desert

• Cold desert

Stony desert

Plateau desert

Mountain desert

Cold desert

Features of desert ecosystem

• Rainfall

• Temperature

• Soil

• light

• Plants and animals are adapted to live in extremities

Funtion of desert ecosystem

• Solar energy resource

• Mineral resource

Grassland Ecosystem

• Marginal rainfall

• Vegetation is dominated by grasses

• Unimproved wild-plant communities

• Densely populated

Types of Grassland Ecosystem

• Tropical grassland

• Temperate grassland

• Others

Features of grassland ecosystem

• Temperature

• Precipitation

• Humidity

• Topography

• Unadaptive plants and animals

Funtion of grassland ecosystem

• Grassland provide food

• Grasslands Are Breeding Areas

• Human habitat

Aquatic Ecosystem

• Low temperature and sunlight

• Soil and vegitation is submerged

• Flora and fauna had adapted

• Densely populated.

Types of Aquatic ecosystem

• Ocean

• Lotic

• Lentic

• Wetland

Features of aquatic ecosystem

• Light and temperature

• Current

• Chemistry

• Competitive organism

Funtion of Aquatic Ecosystem

• Recycles nutrients

• Purify water

• Resposible for proper rainfall

• Attenuate floods

• Recharge ground water
