Ecosystem

Ecological succession is the process in which ecosystems develop and change over time. The habitats are constantly changing, and will never stay the same. There are two main types of succession, primary and secondary. Primary succession is one of the two types of biological and ecological succession. It is the establishment and development of an ecosystem that was lacking any inhabitants beforehand. Example would include melting glaciers, volcanic eruptions, or landslides. Secondary…

MODULE 2: CC, Impacts and Application of Weather and Climate Information in Reducing the Impacts 60 | Training Course on Ecosystem Resilience in a Changing Climate Seasons Seasons are annually recurring periods differentiated by weather. Seasonal changes are due to the Earth revolving around the sun. Different areas of the world experience seasons differently. Temperate and…

going to their destinations. An ecosystem is all living things (plants and animals) and nonliving things that live in a specific area. The man-of-war jellyfish lives in the busiest area of all, the neritic zone. The neritic zone is packed of ocean animals because it gets the perfect portion of sunlight, it’s a good temperature, and not lots of pressure. The neritic zone is located on the continental shelf. Like every animal, the Portuguese man-of-war jellyfish’s ecosystem affects everything…

1. Why do unrelated plants often assume the same growth form in different parts of the world? Unrelated plants often assume the same growth form in different parts of the world because of similar environmental conditions, physical structure of the plant, myriad interactions of species, chance and history, evolution leading to unique biomes. 2. Which types of environmental conditions limit the distributions of plants? Cold and dry temperature makes it hard for plants to grow. Tundra, located at…

list of functioning ecosystems and their ecosystem services. The five I chose to describe are regulating atmospheric gases, precipitation, and temperature; providing people with food and natural resources; preventing soil erosion; and pollinating plants and controlling crop pests. Regulating atmospheric gases is important to our ecosystem for numerous reasons. The most obvious reason would be clean air. As we produce and expend fuel resources, we release toxic air into our ecosystem. This is…
