The logging companies choose to cut down trees in the Amazon Rainforest because hardwoods are very hard to find and most are in the Amazon Rainforest. Also, there’s so much woods that they need from the forest in order to create the furnitures. Clearing the trees could also help provide clear areas for new housing and villages.

    Interconnectedness in the Rainforest Ecosystem

    In the rainforest ecosystem, everything is connected to one another. There is an interconnectedness existing in this ecosystem. To continue to function, the ecosystem depends on the interactions between the biotic and abiotic factors. An ecosystem survives by a combination of energy flow and matter recycling. To understand the interconnectedness of the ecosystem, food webs and food chains could be observed. Each organism depends on each other to survive and maintain their populations. In the food web, there are the producers and the consumers. The producers produce their food by the sun; they are autotrophs. This is one of the main ways energy is introduced into the ecosystem from the sun to the organisms. Herbivores depend on these producers for their food and energy. Carnivores depend on the herbivores for their food and energy, and omnivores depend on the producers and consumers for their food and energy. A dependency can be seen as the organisms rely on one another for energy.…
