Which of the following is composed of interactions of all living organisms and their natural environment?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

Consider what the question is asking: the entity that is composed of interactions among living organisms and their natural environment.
Option 1: 'the ecosystem' describes the dynamic network of organisms (plants, animals, microbes) and the physical surroundings (air, water, soil, climate) interacting with one another. This matches the definition of an ecosystem as a system of interdependent relationships in nature.
Option 2: 'the social environment' focuses on human social factors, institutions, and relationships, not the full biological-natural interactions that include nonhuman biotic components and physical processes. Therefore this is too narrow.
Option 3: 'the sociobiological system' is not a standard, widely accepted term for this concept; while sociobiology studies social behavior in biological terms, it does not denote the holistic assemblage of all organisms and their environment.
Option 4: 'the ethnosystem' typically refers to cultural or ethnographic systems reflecting human communities and their cultures, not the broader biotic-abiotic interactions that define ecosystems.
Taking all options together, the characterization that best fits the description—interactions of all living organisms and their natural environment—is the ecosystem.
