Biological elements

Front 18

such as social, economic, and political elements are mostly human-made features that make cultural milieu.

Cultural elements

Front 19

it is a community or group of living organisms that live in and interact with each other in a specific environment

Ecosystem

Front 21

occur on only 1.8% of Earth‘s surface.

Back 21

Freshwater (Standing) ecosystems

Front 22

comprise 75% of Earth‘s surface and consist of three basic types: deep ocean water, shallow ocean, and ocean bottom

Back 22

Marine ecosystems

Front 23

are grouped into broad categories called biomes and are known for being diverse

Back 23

Terrestrial ecosystems,

Front 24

is a large-scale community of organisms, primarily defined on land by the dominant plant types

Macroecosystems are dimensionally larger systems, such as a forest or a lake.

Back 25

Macroecosystems

Front 26

are experimental set-ups in the field or laboratory built by life scientists and environmental biologists interested in evaluating the functional mechanisms of an ecosystem.
