An ecosystem is a self-sustaining and self-regulating community of
living organisms and its non-living environment. Forest ecosystem consists of animals, birds, plants, fungi,
micro-organisms and non-living things: water, air and soil. There are abiotic and biotic factors in the forest
ecosystem. Abiotic factors are a non-living chemical or physical factor
in the environment. A living thing, as an animal or plant, that
influences or affects an ecosystem called biotic factor. Food web
is a series of organisms related by predator-prey and consumer-resource
interactions; the entirety of interrelated food chains in an ecological
community. Animals cant convert energy, but plants and trees can do
this through the process of photosynthesis. Sunlight energy is converted
to simple sugars in plants. This type of organisms called producers.
There are
herbivores and carnivores. Herbivores only eat plants, but carnivores
eat meat. But there are omnivores, too. Omnivores are animals, who eat
both of meat and plants.
