• B. Ecosystems are dynamic.
• C. Ecosystems are shaped by the activities of the organisms that inhabit them.
• D. Ecosystems are made up of only inorganic materials.

Answer 1

The correct option is D Ecosystems are made up of only inorganic materials.

Ecosystems involve interactions of living organisms between them and also with their surrounding non-living environment on a constant basis, i.e., they are dynamic (always changing). Ecosystems are shaped by the activities of the organisms that inhabit them. Ecosystems are made up of both organic and inorganic materials.
