About this document
Ecosystem Biology: Structure & Function by zaraadler013 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
An ecosystem is a biological community where living (biotic) and non-living (abiotic) components interact, functioning as a unit. Key aspects include productivity, decomposition, energy flow, and nutrient cycling, with energy transfer diminishing at higher trophic levels. Ecological pyramids illustrate the relationships between producers and consumers, highlighting the energy loss at each level and the limitations of such models in representing complex food webs.
