Introduction to environment ecology &ecosystemApurva Sanghani
1) Environment refers to all the biological and nonbiological factors surrounding and affecting an organism. It includes biotic (living) and abiotic (non-living) components that interact in a dynamic system.
2) Ecology is the study of the relationships between organisms and their environment. It has two main divisions - autecology which studies individual species, and synecology which examines the interactions within and between communities.
3) An ecosystem is the functional unit of ecology comprising biotic and abiotic components that interact through food chains, food webs, and biogeochemical cycles. Energy and matter are transferred between ecosystem components in both directions.
Environmental science is a multidisciplinary field that studies the interactions between living organisms and their surrounding natural and man-made environments. It considers physical, chemical, and biological factors that affect organisms. The environment includes biotic components like plants and animals as well as abiotic factors such as air, water, and soil. Environmental studies aims to understand human impacts and develop solutions to issues like pollution, sustainable resource use, and biodiversity conservation. It is a broad field that integrates aspects of many disciplines like science, social science, and management.
An ecosystem comprises two main components: abiotic and biotic. Abiotic components are non-living physical and chemical factors like air, water, soil, temperature and sunlight. Biotic components are the living parts like plants, animals and microorganisms. The relationship between biotic and abiotic components is called holocoenosis. Producers, consumers and decomposers interact as parts of the food chain and food web within an ecosystem.

Environment refers to all surrounding conditions that impact humans and animals. It has biotic components (living things like plants and animals) and abiotic components (non-living things like air, water, and land). The biosphere is the part of Earth where life exists, and includes the atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, and the living things within them. The lithosphere comprises the solid crust and upper mantle of the planet, and is divided into oceanic and continental plates. The atmosphere surrounds the Earth and is composed primarily of nitrogen, oxygen, and trace gases.
Environment may be consider as our surroundings which includes everything around us, i.e. the non-living (abiotic) and living (biotic) environment.
The abiotic environment consists of air, water and soil, while the biotic environment includes all the living organisms (plants, animals, microorganisms) that we regularly come in contact.
Environment – Basic Concepts:
The environment is composed of four basic components:
i. Atmosphere
ii. Hydrosphere

The document also covers 1D, 2D and 3D motion with examples. It distinguishes between scalar and vector quantities and discusses types of vectors and how they can be added.
This document provides an overview of electricity, atomic structure, electric charge, and electric circuits. It defines electricity as the flow of electric charge through a conductor. Atoms consist of protons, neutrons, and electrons, with protons and neutrons in the nucleus and electrons orbiting the nucleus. Protons have a positive charge while electrons have a negative charge. Electric circuits allow the flow of electrons from higher to lower potential through components connected in series or parallel. Key differences between series and parallel circuits are that current is the same but voltage varies in series circuits, while current varies but voltage is the same in parallel circuits.
This document discusses various methods for purifying organic compounds, including sublimation, crystallization, differential extraction, distillation, and chromatography. Purification is necessary to study the structure, physical, chemical and biological properties of organic compounds and must isolate the compound from any impurities. The appropriate purification method depends on the nature of the impurity and the organic compound. Common techniques include sublimation for volatile solids, crystallization using solvent selection and isolation, differential extraction using immiscible organic solvent layers, distillation, and chromatography using adsorbents and mobile/fixed phases.
This document provides an overview of electrochemistry and electrochemical cells. It defines electrochemistry as the branch of chemistry dealing with the relationship between electrical energy and chemical change. An electrochemical cell is a device that uses a chemical change to produce electricity or uses electricity to produce a chemical change. The document describes the components of electrochemical cells, including electrodes and electrolytes. It distinguishes between galvanic cells, which produce electricity from chemical reactions, and electrolytic cells, which use electricity to drive chemical reactions. Examples of the significance of electrochemistry include metal refining and batteries.
The document discusses various aspects of sound. It defines sound as a form of energy produced by vibrations that travel through a medium and are detected by the human ear. It describes how sound is produced by vibrating objects and propagated through materials like air, water and steel. It discusses key characteristics of sound including amplitude, frequency, wavelength, velocity and their definitions. It also covers topics like reflection of sound, echo, reverberation, ultrasound, sonar and their uses and applications. The document provides information on the structure of the human ear and production of sound using a tuning fork experiment.
The document discusses key concepts relating to heat and temperature. It defines heat as the spontaneous flow of energy from objects at a higher temperature to those at a lower temperature. Temperature is defined as the degree of hotness or coldness of a body. Different temperature scales such as Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin are also discussed. The document also covers heat capacity, specific heat capacity, and the various effects of heat such as expansion, changes in temperature and state, and chemical changes.
This document defines and provides examples of different types of energy, work, and their relationships. It states that work is done when a force causes an object to be displaced, and is calculated as the product of the force and displacement. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, while potential energy depends on an object's position or state, such as gravitational potential energy which depends on height or elastic potential energy from deformation. Power is defined as the rate at which work is done or energy is delivered over time.
An electric motor is a device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. It works by passing an electric current through a conductor coil located in a magnetic field, which creates a force on the coil and causes it to rotate. Electric motors are crucial to modern life as they are used in many appliances and machines, powering things like fans, drills, and vehicles. The speed of an electric motor's coil rotation can be increased by strengthening the current, increasing the number of coil turns, enlarging the coil area, or boosting the magnetic field strength.
This document discusses the basic elements of electric circuits. It defines electric current as the flow of charges and an electric circuit as the path electrons flow through. It then lists the four elements of a simple circuit: a battery as the electricity source, a wire as the conducting path, a lamp as the resistor, and a switch to control the circuit. It also briefly mentions series and parallel circuits as types of simple circuits.
