How does light affect the ecosystem?

Answer 1

Its necessary for photosynthesis in the water just as it is on land.

Answer 2

Depending on depth, light affects which species may be present in an aquatic ecosystem. Past a certain depth, so little light is present that photosynthetic organisms cannot exist. Light also effects how predators and prey see each other which has led to all kinds of interesting adaptations to compensate.

Answer 3

Well the sun helps plants grow and herbivores eat plants then carnivores eat the herbivores then when the carnivores die they get decomposed. So the sun is the starting point of the cycle. And starts all over again!

Answer 4

Light is essential for photosynthesis, which is the process by which plants produce energy. It also helps regulate the behavior and activities of many organisms, such as their feeding patterns, reproduction, and migration. However, too much light can disrupt ecosystems, leading to issues such as light pollution, altered predator-prey dynamics, and changes in plant growth patterns.
