Answer 2

Answer:
Everything that surrounds or affects an organism during its life time is collectively known as its environment or simply put everything surrounding a living organism like people; place and things constitute its environment which can be either natural or man-made. The word environment has been derived from a French word ‘environner’ meaning to encircle or to surround. In the beginning, environment of early man consisted of only physical aspects of the planet earth such as land (lithosphere), air (atmosphere) and water (hydrosphere) along with biotic communities but, with the passage of time and advancement of society man extended his environment to include his social, economic and political functions too. At the organismic level it is essentially physiological interaction which tries to understand that how different organisms are adapted to their environment in terms of not only survival but also reproduction and propagation of their population. All organisms (from virus to man) are obligatorily dependent on the environment for various essential needs such as food, shelter, water, oxygen etc. The surrounding that affects an organism during its lifetime is collectively known as its environment. In another words “Environment is sum total of water, air and land inter-relationships among themselves and also with the human being, other living organisms and material goods”. It comprises all the physical and biological surrounding and their connections. Environmental studies give an approach towards understanding the environment of our globe and the impact of human life upon the environment and vice-versa. Thus environment is actually universal in nature and it is a multidisciplinary subject counting physics, chemistry, geology, geography, history, economics, physiology, biotechnology, remote sensing, geophysics, soil science and hydrology etc.
Environment belongs to all the biotic and abiotic components and therefore is, vital for all. Consequently, everyone is affected by environmental issues like global warming, depletion of ozone layer, dwindling forest, depleting energy resources, loss of biodiversity etc. Environment also deals with the analysis of the processes in hydrosphere, atmosphere, lithosphere, and organisms which leads to pollute biosphere. Environment helps us for setting benchmark for safe and healthy natural ecosystem.
