1. Ask the students what level of biological organization is being illustrated in the picture.
Q, What do you think is the difference between the two sets of ecosystem? (Lead the students in answering that there is a
difference between the human intervention)
2. Let the students enumerate and write on the board what they see in the picture.
3. Then, ask the students to group those things according to their similarities. (Lead the students in grouping it in living and
nonliving things.)

All biotic and abiotic components are interrelated. In nature, you will find that if one factor is changed or removed, it impacts the
availability of other resources in the system. Knowing this, give an example of what might happen given the following situations.
1. All of the rocks are removed from the desert ecosystem, what would happen to the population of the rock-dwelling
lizards and in turn the animals which eat them?
2. A ten-mile area of trees is removed from the forest. How will this affect the amount of water and the amount of oxygen in
the area?

H. Making generalizations & abstractions The ecosystem is considered as the smallest functional unit of ecology. It is composed of biotic (living) and abiotic
about the lesson (nonliving) components in the environment. Biotic components can be classified as producers, consumers (herbivores, carnivore,
omnivore), decomposers or detritivores. Abiotic components are the nonliving components include air, water, sunlight, humidity,
temperature, soil, rainfall, and nutrients in the soil.
Ecosystems are classified as either natural or humanmade. Natural ecosystems are those that normally function without
human supervision and where human influence is minimal. Examples are coral reefs and deep-sea ecosystems. Humanmade
ecosystems need to be maintained and can be manipulated. Examples are terrarium, aquariums and fishponds.
