The aminotic components in ecosystem are nitrogen compounds. They are important in the ecosystem, such as;
- Nitrogen nutrient for plants.
- Amino acid for protein synthesis in plants and animals.
- The nitrogen fixing bacteria in soils, to help plants growth.
- For, decomposing of dead organisms.
Answer:
An ecosystem has two major components-
(1) Biotic components- It includes producers (plants), consumers (animals) and decomposers (bacteria and fungi).
(a) Producers- Organisms which are able to photosynthesis are called producers. It includes all green plants.
(b) Consumers- Organisms which depends upon other are called consumers. It is of few types-
(i) Herbivores- Animals which directly depends upon plants.
(ii) Carnivores- These animals eat herbivores.
(iii) Secondary carnivores- Animals which depends upon carnivores.
(iv) Tertiary carnivores- Largest animals which depends upon secondary carnivores.
(a) Decomposers- These organisms depend upon dead plants and animals. They change complex organic substances into simple inorganic substances.
(1) Abiotic components- Non-living components. It include physical and chemical factors such as light, water, soil, air temperature, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen and other nutrients.
