Ecosystem
Living things are living, breathing, eating organisms that take and contribute to their ecosystem. Nonliving things do not breathe, eat, or need water (e.g., a rock). A dead organism is a once-living creature that has become a nonliving thing.

The level of organization that includes living and nonliving components is the ecosystem. Ecosystems consist of all living organisms (biotic factors) as well as the physical environment (abiotic factors) in which they interact.
Living things are called organisms, while nonliving things are called abiotic components. These components together make up an ecosystem.
no the environment is all the living and non living things that surround an organism :) ... also an ecosystem is also known as a community and all the nonliving things that effect it.

Cells
living things are subjected to the same physical and chemical laws as nonliving things
No, nonliving things do not have cells. Cells are the basic structural and functional units of living organisms. Nonliving things do not exhibit the characteristics of life, such as growth, metabolism, and reproduction, which are dependent on the presence of cells.
Nonliving things can be identified by several key properties: they do not exhibit growth or reproduction, lack metabolic processes, and do not respond to stimuli in the same way living organisms do. Additionally, nonliving things do not possess cellular organization or the ability to adapt to their environment over time. These characteristics help distinguish nonliving entities from living organisms.
No, a population specifically refers to a group of individuals of the same species living in a particular area at the same time. It only includes living organisms, such as plants, animals, and microorganisms. Nonliving things, such as water, soil, and air, are part of the ecosystem but are not included in the definition of a population.
There is no community of all nonliving things. A community is composed of all of the populations (of living things) in an area. An ecosystem is composed of the living community and the nonliving factors in an area.
