The surroundings around us that are interacting with life forms can be called as Environment. We can divide the Environment into two components (Physical and biological) and study it by its measurable characteristics which are called as the environmental factors; they are those which are physical or biological variables and are in one or the other way impacts the existence of life.
The environment is a balanced Energy flow pattern through the interdependence of various Components & their interaction and transformations; generally termed as Ecosystems.
The environment is divided into biotic and abiotic components
Biotic Components are Autotrophs(Producers) which includes Microbes, Phytoplankton: These harnesses the energy of inorganic substances by Photosynthesis or Chemosynthesis to convert into organic substances (Life Building Blocks)
Under autotrophs, it is further divided into Heterotrophs and decomposers
Primary Heterotrophs are Zooplankton, Small Fish, Prawns, Crabs, feeds on Autotrophs
Secondary Heterotrophs are Large Fishes, Seagulls, Sea Snakes, Turtles o Tertiary Heterotrophs: Sharks, Marine Mammals, Sea Eagles, Humans: consume other organisms for energy
Decomposers are Detritus bacteria: destroy debris, such as decaying leaves or dead animals; keep streams clean and clear by filtering and recycling nutrients
Abiotic Components are factors like Temperature, Precipitation, Geology, Soil, Sunlight, Water chemistry (minerals and salts).
