Eco-System - What Are Its Components?

Decomposers break down dead organisms into simpler substances, recycling nutrients like carbon and nitrogen back into the soil, which can then be absorbed by plants.

Producers, such as green plants and algae, are autotrophs that capture solar energy and convert it into chemical energy through photosynthesis. They form the base of the food chain and provide energy for all other organisms.

The two main components of an ecosystem are biotic components (living organisms) and abiotic components (non-living elements such as air, water, and soil).

An ecosystem is a functional unit of nature where living organisms interact with each other and with their non-living environment. These interactions involve the transfer of energy and cycling of nutrients, maintaining ecological balance.
