Read the passage: An ecosystem is a group of animals and plants living in a specific region and interacting with one another and with their physical environment.
Ecosystems include physical and chemical components such as soils, water, climate, sunlight, and nutrients that support the organisms living
there. These organisms may range from large animals to microscopic bacteria. Ecosystems can also be thought of as the interactions among all
organisms in a given habitat, for instance, one species may serve as food for another. The movement of matter and energy at different levels can
create a food chain, and food chains can overlap to create what ecologists call a food web.
