Detailed explanation-1: -Every factor in an ecosystem depends on every other factor, either directly or indirectly. A change in the temperature of an ecosystem will often affect what plants will grow there, for instance. Animals that depend on plants for food and shelter will have to adapt to the changes, move to another ecosystem, or perish.
Detailed explanation-2: -Human activities can have significant effects on ecosystems Habitat loss occurs through land-use changes, such as the clearing of a forest to plant crops, and through activities, such as mining, that directly destroy natural landscapes.
