What is ecological balance and why do we need to maintain it?
Answers
Answer:
Ecological balance is a term used to describe the equilibrium between living organisms such as human being, plants, and animals as well as their environment. Photosynthesis that takes place in ecosystem contributes to building a good environment that stabilizes the coexistence of all organisms.
The balance of nature or ecological balance is a theory that proposes that ecological systems are usually in a stable equilibrium or homeostasis, which is to say that a small change will be corrected by some negative feedback that will bring the parameter back to its original "point of balance" with the rest of the system.
Trees maintain the ecological balance i.e. organisation of ecosystems in nature. Trees release oxygen in the air through photosynthesis which is essential for many life-sustaining reactions. Trees provide shelter to wildlife and food for all organisms. They help in raining and reduce environmental pollution. But with the increasing demand for resources, trees are being cut and deforestation is increasing which can have adverse impacts on nature. Hence, whenever a tree is cut, a tree should be planted in place of that because it takes much time for a tree to grow but very less time to cut.
