Solution

The correct options are
B Animals consuming plants
C Humans constructing buildings and shelters
D Dead plants decomposing
An ecosystem consists of the biotic components interacting with other biotic or abiotic components. So, a living organism is a must for an ecosystem to exist. The collision of two oxygen molecules in isolation does not involve any biotic components. However, by definition, the process of humans inhaling oxygen may be considered to be a part of an ecosystem.
