What is difference between ecology and ecosystem?

Answer 1

The difference from marine Biology and marine zoology is that marine Biology is the study of animal and invertebrates instincts, anatomy, or lifestyle. While marine zoology is ultimately all about animals in general.

Answer 2

Ecosystem is the physical system(an open system) in which the mutual interaction between biotic and aboitic component motored by the energy component is studied.

while the Ecology is the science which study the interrelation between Aboitic(inorganic) and Biotic(organic) components as well as the interaction among the biotic component.

to make it more clear, ecosystem is the fundamental unit of ecological study.

Answer 3

Ecology is the study of how organisms interact with each other and their environment, while an ecosystem refers to a community of living organisms along with their abiotic environment, interacting together in a defined area. In simple terms, ecology is the study of the relationships between living things and their environment, while an ecosystem is the actual system formed by those living organisms and their environment.

Answer 4

Depending on your take on dualism (the belief that the mind and body are separate), you will get two answers. If you believe that the mind is separate from the body, it logically follows that sociology is a field of inquiry completely separate from biology. Sociology is then the study of how individual minds is organized in groups, and how they interact. If, on the other hand you reject dualism, i.e. you believe that the mind is not separate from the body, it logically follows that sociology is a subsidiary field of biology. All social and cultural phenomena are abstractions of biological processes, and their interactions with the environment, and biological processes in other biological systems (i.e. other humans).

Most definitions of sociology in respect to biology will probably (by my own unvalidated guesstimation) fall somewhere between these polarities.

Answer 5

Ecology is a study of the relationships within any given ecosystem. Between organisms and other organisms and organisms with abiotic factors (non-living things). Biology is a general field of study of life on Earth; how it originated, how it functions etc.

Answer 6

Ecology studies ecological systems (or ecosystems). That is relation between species (biological individuals) and/or between species and their environment. Unlike that, Bionomics studies human economy as ecosystem (Michael Rothchild). That is relation between economic species and/or between economic species and their economic environment. Additionally, bionomics may be determined as a biological sub discipline which studies economic forms of life (Igor Flor) and economic ecosystems.

Answer 7

Bionomics is related to the laws between environment and a living being

Where as ecology stamp for the study of relationship between environment and living being

Answer 8

Ecology is the study of an organisms interactions within their environment. Biology is the study of structure, function, evolution, growth, and distribution of an organism.

Answer 9

I think geology is to do with rocks and fossils and what causes earthquakes, and the GEOLOGICAL TIME SCALE. Ecology is something to do with the environment, but I don't know for sure...
