elementary structural and functional unit of the biosphere including: • living component - biocoenosis • non living component – abiotic environment • there are natural relationships for the balance of the whole ecosystem ECOSYSTEMS
terrestrial (land) ecosystems = geobiocoenosis: • borders are determined according to the most striking component - vegetation • all ecosystems: • characterized as open systems: • energy flow • substance circulation • development ECOSYSTEMS
ecosystems are dependant on inputs: • solar energy • CO2 • water • mineral substances • ecosystems are dependant on outputs: • breathing • radiation • soil elution • flowing-off the surface water • wind erosion ECOSYSTEMS
natural ecosystems: • oak-hornbeam forest • peatbog • lake • river branch • forest pool • even a tree stump ECOSYSTEMS
artificial ecosystems: • created by the human activity • they are kept just thanks to so called additional energy > fertilizers, sprays, cultivations, weeding • field • orchard • aquarium ECOSYSTEMS
in the ecosystem exist reciprocal relationships • most important are nutritional relationships = trophic • classification of organisms according to trophic relations: • producers • consumers • destroyers ECOSYSTEMS
producers: • autotrophic organisms > photosynthesis • green plants • bacteria • plants in their biomass bind 1% of all substances • produced organic mass = primary production of the ecosystem ECOSYSTEMS
consumers: • heterotrophic organisms > they consume organic substances created by producers • herbivora • carnivora • detritophags • parasites of plants, animals and humans ECOSYSTEMS
destroyers = decomposers • organisms performing gradual decomposition of the necrotic organic mass into inorganic compounds - CO2 , H2O and mineral substances • substances are used again by producers • transmission of substances and energy proceeds in food chains ECOSYSTEMS
decomposition: • key process in the nutrient cycle • among the most important groups of decomposers belong fungi and bacteria ECOSYSTEMS
