Solution
The correct option is C Tansley
British botanist A.G. Tansley first introduced the term ecosystem to describe a group of living organisms and its effective environment. Tansley's definition in 1935 referred to the whole system, including not only the organism complex, but also the whole complex of physical factors forming the environment of the biome. Tansley pointed out that it involves the sequences by which natural materials are obtained, transformed and used and he attempted to show how societies are organized according to their natural resources, the effects of that use, and the ways in which natural conditions limit or expand the life and work of the society.
