The Interconnectedness of Life
Everything is connected. There is a
symbiotic relationship between all
living things. One good example of this
relationship is ecosystems. These are
communities of living organisms that
share the benefits of their habitat. They
get air, water, and food. (A) …
Our planet is an ecosystem, made up
of many other small ecosystems. But
human actions have transformed the
Earth. Too much CO2 in the atmosphere
is changing the climate of the planet.
This change creates other conditions
that affect ecosystems.
(B) … We create pollution. We build roads, kill
animals, cut down trees, pollute the soil, air and
water, and consume resources without thinking
of the effects. Forests are necessary to purify the
air. Trees absorb CO2 and release oxygen. They
also maintain the water cycle by releasing water
vapour into the atmosphere. The forests are the
habitat of many organisms and animals. They
provide food and water. Clearly, deforestation is
our biggest problem. (C) …
A healthy ecosystem allows many different
species to live together. This is biodiversity, and
it is sustainable when it is capable of providing
the necessary conditons for all species to live and
reproduce.
a. What are some characteristics of ecosystems?
b. According to the article, what happens when
something does not work in an ecosystem?

Todo está conectado. Hay un
relación simbiótica entre todos
cosas vivas. Un buen ejemplo de esto
la relación son los ecosistemas. Estos son
comunidades de organismos vivos que
compartir los beneficios de su hábitat. Ellos
obtenga aire, agua y comida. (A) …
Nuestro planeta es un ecosistema, compuesto
de muchos otros pequeños ecosistemas. Pero
Las acciones humanas han transformado el
Tierra. Demasiado CO2 en la atmósfera
está cambiando el clima del planeta.
Este cambio crea otras condiciones
que afectan los ecosistemas.
(B)… Creamos contaminación. Construimos caminos, matamos
animales, talar árboles, contaminar el suelo, el aire y
agua, y consumir recursos sin pensar
de los efectos. Los bosques son necesarios para purificar la
aire. Los árboles absorben CO2 y liberan oxígeno. Ellos
también mantienen el ciclo del agua liberando agua
vapor a la atmósfera. Los bosques son los
hábitat de muchos organismos y animales. Ellos
proporcionar comida y agua. Claramente, la deforestación es
nuestro mayor problema. (C) …
Un ecosistema saludable permite muchos
especies para vivir juntas. Esta es la biodiversidad y
es sostenible cuando es capaz de proporcionar
las condiciones necesarias para que todas las especies vivan y
reproducir.
