An ecosystem contains both biotic factors, which are living things like plants, animals, fungi and bacteria, and abiotic factors, which are non-living things like moisture, temperature, wind, sunlight and soil. Changing one of these factors can impact many others in the ecosystem. Ecosystems also contain biodiversity through the variety of living things present, and keystone species, which have an outsized effect on the ecosystem.

An ecosystem consists of all the living and nonliving components in an environment and the interactions between them. It includes biotic factors like producers, consumers, and decomposers as well as abiotic factors such as water, sunlight, and temperature. Producers like plants obtain energy through photosynthesis while consumers obtain energy by consuming other organisms. Decomposers play an important role by breaking down dead organic matter and recycling nutrients.
ENVIRONMENT: MEANING AND ITS COMPONENTS
The environment consists of both biotic and abiotic components. Biotic components include living things like plants, animals and humans. Abiotic components are non-living factors such as water, air, soil, rocks and sunlight. Ecosystems involve interactions between living organisms, including producers like plants that produce energy through photosynthesis, primary consumers like herbivores that eat plants, and secondary consumers like carnivores that eat other animals. Abiotic factors also influence ecosystems, with examples being soil, water, air, temperature and sunlight, which different organisms are adapted to in different ways.

SCIENTIFIC INVESTIGATION-HOW MUCH WATERING.LESSON 6.pptx
This lesson discusses the importance of fair testing in scientific experiments. It explains key terms like abiotic factors, which are non-living environmental conditions like water and soil that affect plant growth. The lesson shows an example of an experiment where a student named Angela tests how different amounts of water affect seed germination. Her experiment follows the scientific method and controls variables to perform a fair test. The lesson emphasizes that experiments must be designed carefully and variables isolated to draw valid conclusions.
Why Cells.LESSON 5.pptx
Cells are the basic unit of structure and function for all living things. Scientists believe cells are the basic unit because all living things are made up of cells and cells only come from preexisting cells. To view cells under a microscope, samples must be stained and the microscope focused carefully. The lesson discusses cells and their importance as the fundamental building blocks of life.
