The Balance of Nature

The Balance of Nature refers to the natural equilibrium in ecosystems where living organisms, such as plants, animals, and microorganisms, interact with each other and their environment. This balance is maintained through processes like predation, competition, and nutrient cycles, where each species plays a role in sustaining the ecosystem. Disruptions, such as pollution, habitat loss, or climate change, can upset this balance, leading to negative consequences like species extinction or ecosystem collapse. Understanding this concept emphasizes the importance of preserving biodiversity and protecting natural habitats to ensure healthy, functioning ecosystems.
