Question

What is the ecological balance?


Open in App
Solution

Ecological balance:

  1. Ecological balance is a state of dynamic equilibrium within a community of organisms in which genetic, species, and ecosystem diversity remain relatively stable, subject to gradual changes through natural succession.
  2. In order to maintain this balance, carbon production sources have to be reduced and promote tree planting to restore the ecosystem and ecological balance.
  3. The predator-prey relationship between the Canadian lynx and the snowshoe hare is an excellent example of ecological balance.
  4. When the number of snowshoe hares grows, more food becomes available for the Canadian lynx.
  5. The population of the Canadian lynx grows as more food becomes available.
