Ecosystem and Its application in business
- 2. The interaction and interrelationship between the living community (plants, animals, and organisms) in relation to each other and the non-living community (soil, air, and water) is referred to as an ecosystem.Thus, an ecosystem is a structural and functional unit of biosphere. It is made up of living and non-living beings and their physical environment
- 4. It is an Ecosystem which have an impact of Human on itself. Business Political Economical
- 5. An ecosystem is a self-contained unit of living things and their non-living environment. Natural Ecosystem Aquatic Marine Freshwater 1. River 2. Lake 3. Wetland Terrestrial Forest Desert Grassland Mountain
- 6. Biotic (Living Components) Biotic components in ecosystems include organisms such as plants, animals, and microorganisms.The biotic components of ecosystem comprise − a. Producers or Autotrophs b. Consumers or Heterotrophs c. Decomposers or Detritus Abiotic (Non-living Components) Abiotic components consist of climate or factors of climate such as temperature, light, humidity, precipitation, gases, wind, water, soil, salinity, substratum, mineral, topography, and habitat.The flow of energy and the cycling of water and nutrients are critical to each ecosystem on the earth. Non-living components set the stage for ecosystem operation.
- 7. An ecosystem which is located in a body of water is known as an aquatic ecosystem.The nature and characteristics of the communities of living or biotic organisms and non- living or abiotic factors which interact with and interrelate to one another are determined by the aquatic surroundings of their environment they are dependent upon.

- 9. Terrestrial ecosystems are those ecosystems that exist on land(May be water also). These ecosystems are of different types such as forest ecosystem, desert ecosystem, grassland and mountain ecosystems.
- 10. Energy moves life.The cycle of energy is based on the flow of energy through different trophic levels in an ecosystem. Our ecosystem is maintained by the cycling energy and nutrients obtained from different external sources. At the first trophic level, primary producers use solar energy to produce organic material through photosynthesis.
- 11. Biogeochemical cycles refer to the flow of such chemical elements and compounds between organisms and the physical environment. Chemicals taken in by organisms are passed through the food chain and come back to the soil, air, and water through mechanisms such as respiration, excretion, and decomposition. Carbon Cycle Nitrogen Cycle Water Cycle Oxygen Cycle Phosphorus Cycle Sulphur Cycle
- 12. The evaporation of water from ocean, rivers, lakes, and transpiring plants takes water in the form of vapors to the atmosphere. This vaporized water subsequently cools and condenses to form cloud and water.This cooled water vapor ultimately returns to the earth as rain and snow, completing the cycle.
- 13. 1. Producers (FirstTrophic Level) 2. Consumers • Primary Consumers (SecondTrophic Level) • Secondary Consumers (ThirdTrophic Level) • Tertiary Consumers (FourthTrophic Level) 3. Decomposers
- 14. The word ‘web’ means network. Food web can be defined as ‘a network of interconnected food chains so as to form a number of feeding relationships amongst different organism of a biotic community.
- 15. A business ecosystem is the network of organizations — including suppliers, distributors, customers, competitors, government agencies, and so on — involved in the delivery of a specific product or service through both competition and cooperation.The idea is that each entity in the ecosystem affects and is affected by the others, creating a constantly evolving relationship in which each entity must be flexible and adaptable in order to survive, as in a biological ecosystem.
- 18. Environment Policy of a State refers to the deliberate actions taken by state to manage the activities of the population within the state in order to prevent, reduce or alleviate any harmful effects on nature and its natural resources. Environmental Policy Sustainable Design Sustainable Exhibitions Sustainable Procurement Go Green on Energy Pollution Reduction Conservation of Resources
- 19. Impact of Environmental policies on Brick Klin: 1. Impossible for every Owner to Implant Pollution Control System Being Costly; Unaffordable Systems. 2. Winding Up of Klins Result in Unemployment of Labour Class (Eg. In Punjab)
- 20. Changing Climate usually effects the Demand and Supply of Raw materials as well as Finished Products i.e Ready to Consume Commodities directly.
- 21. Green agenda is the method of Start Up of Business with the Agenda of Producing Products in such a way that it could have its least adverse impact on Ecosystem and its Resources.
- 22. Ecosystem has a Direct Impact and its application on Business as every business activity functions under Ecosystem and even under the Nature of Ecosystem.
