The biosphere

From small to big

1. Organism = a living individual

2. Species = a group of organisms

5. Ecosystem = interactions between community and environment

6. Biome = a large group of ecosystems

7. Biosphere = The global system which includes all life

Everything is connected

Just like atoms interact to make a molecule or species interact in a community, ecosystems and biomes are connected with one another to form the biosphere. A critical example of Earth-wide connection is the water cycle. Living organisms need water, and there is a large number of living organisms on our planet. The water cycle moves the water that living things use from ecosystem to ecosystem across the biosphere.
