is the scientific study of the relations that living organisms have with respect to each other and their natural environment.

is the global sum of all ecosystems

a species is one of the basic units of biological classification and a taxonomic rank.

is all the organisms that both belong to the same species and live in the same geographical area.

consists of the total body of scientists, its relationships and interactions.

An ecosystem is a biological environment consisting of all the organisms living in a particular area,

or producer, is an organism that produces complex organic compounds (such as carbohydrates, fats, and proteins) from simple inorganic molecules using energy from light (by photosynthesis) or inorganic chemical reactions (chemosynthesis).

is an organism that cannot fix carbon and uses organic carbon for growth

depicts feeding connections (who eats whom) in an ecological community.

The trophic level of an organism is the position it occupies in a food chain

as a renewable energy source, is biological material from living, or recently living organisms.

a biogeochemical cycle or substance turnover or cycling of substances is a pathway by which a chemical element or molecule moves through both biotic (biosphere) and abiotic (lithosphere, atmosphere, and hydrosphere) compartments of Earth.

A limiting factor or limiting resource is a factor that controls a process, such as organism growth or species population, size, or distribution.

Weather is the state of the atmosphere, to the degree that it is hot or cold, wet or dry, calm or stormy, clear or cloudy
