Marine ecosystem Leasa Konza - 11538865
Biodiversity is referred to different organism working and living in one particular interactive environment. This is demonstrated in the following picture; this is also an ecosystem.
en.wikipedia.org
The function of a marine ecosystem. This includes: small organisms, plants, animals (both mammals and non-mammals), outside of marine life and other contributing factors, such as the farm land run off, sea birds and human activities. These are broken into two groups; Biotic and Anbiotic.

As an ecosystem contains a range of different organisms factorizing into the a biotic and abiotic group, there will also be other occurring systems which will lead to the survival of varies organisms. This is known as the food web. This to the right is displaying the food web for this particular ecosystem. This is critical for the survival of this ecosystem as a whole.

Following from the previous slide, the following photo performs a clearer understanding of how the food web within this ecosystem operates.
The contents of this photograph is displaying two systems; highlighting the action of the ecosystem, along with the food web of this ecosystem.

As has the been advised through this slide show that, the marine itself is an ecosystem, however this is an example of a very broad and large ecosystem. As there are many smaller ecosystems within an ecosystem. Such as the picture displayed to the left.
Not only is there organisms here such as, different fishes and plants, but there are species within the seaweed displayed that would in fact be non visible to the naked eye. This is a much more smaller ecosystem, which is apart of the board marine system and its food web.

As stated before, ecosystem break into two different groups. The below picture belongs to the biotic group of the ecosystem. The findings in the picture, are living objects.

The above is again showing a different form of the biotic groups within this ecosystem.

The below is a large biotic organism; a shark

This photo obtains the organisms which belong to the abiotic group within this ecosystem. This group is formed from not diverted living organisms

The above is another form of an abiotic organism within this ecosystem.
