Summary Introduction
To write:
The two major kinds of ecosystems that make up the biosphere.
Introduction:
An ecosystem refers to the sum of both the nonliving (abiotic) and living (biotic) constituents of a natural community. The procedure of energy flows and nutrient cycles make it possible for both the abiotic and biotic components to function together. It can also be stated that an ecosystem refers to an association and at certain occasions a cooperation, which allows organisms to prevail in restricted spaces. The two major kinds of ecosystems are terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.
