• Ecosystem.

  work. The tiny bacteria and fungi feed upon the remains of the salmon. They break down the salmon intochemical nutrients. Nutrients from the salmon go into the soil. The roots of plants along the riverbank take up the nutrients. They use the nutrients to make food. Inthis way, nutrients get recycled back through the ecosystem. WHAT CAN HARM AN ECOSYSTEM? Any change in one living or nonliving part of an ecosystem can cause changes in other parts. Droughts,storms, and fires can change ecosystems....
