Solution
The correct option is B I, II and III
Ecosystem is the functional unit of nature where the living organisms interact with each other and with the surrounding physical environment.
An ecosystem can exchange both energy and matter with its surroundings and hence it is an open system.
Ecosystem receives input in the form of solar energy and matter (inorganic nutrients). Ecosystems give output in the form of energy (heat) and waste matter.
During the circulation of energy in the ecosystem, a part of energy is lost, therefore a regular input of energy is essential for maintaining the ecosystem.
Hence, all statements are correct.
