Key Concepts about Ecosystems
The chapter explains the structure and components of ecosystems, including producers, consumers, decomposers, and abiotic factors. It covers energy flow, food chains, food webs, and ecological pyramids. The chapter also discusses nutrient cycling, including carbon, nitrogen, and water cycles, and the role of ecosystems in maintaining environmental balance. Human impacts on ecosystems, such as pollution, deforestation, and climate change, are also highlighted. Each concept is explained with examples, processes, and significance in maintaining ecological stability. These concepts are highly important for FSC board exams, medical/engineering entry tests like MDCAT, NUMS, AKU, NUST, ECAT, UET, and NTS.
