Introduction of new elements, whether biotic or abiotic, into an ecosystem tend to have a disruptive effect. In some cases, this can lead to ecological collapse or "trophic cascading" and the death of many species within the ecosystem. Often, however, ecosystems have the ability to rebound from a disruptive agent. The difference between collapse or a gentle rebound is determined by two factors-the toxicity of the introduced element and the resiliency of the original ecosystem.
In other words, ecosystems are dynamic - their non-living elements change, and their living elements grow and die. And despite dramatic changes in individual elements, ecosystems can be resilient and stable.

Ecosystems are complex systems where living organisms interact and exchange energy and matter. They are characterized by interdependent relationships where changes in one component can have cascading effects throughout the system. Ecosystems tend to self-regulate through feedback loops to maintain a balance that supports the diversity and resilience of the system.
integration of all living things and their relationships including their interactions with elements of the lithosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere
No, the solar system is not an ecosystem. An ecosystem is a biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment, whereas the solar system consists of the sun, planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and other celestial bodies.
Perhaps, and ecosystem is a system of living things all in one place.
an interdependent system of plant animal and land is an ECOSYSTEM.....
True because it is an ecosystem
