  2. What is an ecosystem? An ecosystem is formed when living and nonliving things interact in an environment.  An ecosystem is a geographic area where plants, animals, and other organisms, as well as weather and landscapes, work together to form a bubble of life. There are many types of ecosystems.  How do they differ? Here are some ways in which ecosystems can differ from each other: • the pattern of weather, or climate • the type of soil or water • the organisms that live there

  3. Types of Ecosystems • Terrestial desert rain forest deciduous forest grassland . • Aquatic Ecosystem Marine Freshwater

  4. Ecosystem Example :: Desert A desert is a type of ecosystem. It has: • a small amount of rain • dry, thin soil • many different types of organisms This is a desert ecosystem. It is dry and is home to many different types of organisms.

  5. Ecosystem Example ::Tide pool A tide pool is a type of ecosystem. It has: • daily flooding and draining of seawater • water that is rich in nutrients • many different types of organisms
