Which of the following are functional units of an ecosystem?
A. Productivity.
B. Spatial pattern.
C. Nutrient cycling.
D. Energy flow.
E. Decomposition.
A. Productivity.
B. Spatial pattern.
C. Nutrient cycling.
D. Energy flow.
E. Decomposition.
Options
- AA, B, C and D only
- BA, C, D and E only
- CA, B and C only
- DA, B, C and E only
Correct answer
B. A, C, D and E only
Step-by-step solution
The components of an ecosystem are seen to function as a unit when the following aspects are considered:
1. Productivity
2. Decomposition
3. Energy flow
4. Nutrient cycling
Spatial pattern (such as stratification) is a structural feature of an ecosystem, not a functional unit.
Therefore, the functional units are Productivity (A), Nutrient cycling (C), Energy flow (D), and Decomposition (E).
Answer: A, C, D and E only
1. Productivity
2. Decomposition
3. Energy flow
4. Nutrient cycling
Spatial pattern (such as stratification) is a structural feature of an ecosystem, not a functional unit.
Therefore, the functional units are Productivity (A), Nutrient cycling (C), Energy flow (D), and Decomposition (E).
Answer: A, C, D and E only
