Ecosystem

An Ecosystem is a complex network of living organisms — plants, animals, and microorganisms — interacting with their physical environment, such as air, water, and soil, in a balanced system of energy exchange and life cycles. It’s the foundation of life on Earth, where every element, no matter how small, plays a critical role in maintaining balance.

In this video, we break down what an ecosystem truly is and how it functions. You’ll learn about the two main components:

Biotic factors – all living things like animals, plants, fungi, and bacteria.

Abiotic factors – non-living components like sunlight, temperature, water, and minerals.

We’ll explore different types of ecosystems — forests, deserts, oceans, tundra, and urban ecosystems — and how energy flows through them via food chains and nutrient cycles. We’ll also discuss how human activity, climate change, and pollution disrupt these systems and threaten biodiversity.

Finally, you’ll discover how restoring ecosystems through reforestation, clean energy, and conservation can help stabilize our planet’s health and secure a sustainable future for all species.
