The Cycling of Life: Understanding the Carbon, Water, and Organic Material Cycles in Ecosystems

The video discusses the recycling of materials in ecosystems, focusing on the carbon and water cycles. It explains how carbon is cycled through photosynthesis, respiration, and decomposition, and how water is cycled through evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. The importance of maintaining these cycles for ecosystem stability is highlighted, along with the impact of disturbances. Decomposition is explored, including the role of decomposers and factors affecting decay rates.
