Question

Standing water ecosystem is known as-
a) Running water ecosystem
b) Lentic aquatic ecosystem
c) Lotic ecosystem
d) Lake’s ecosystem

Answer 1

Hint: Ecosystem is referred to the environment where plants, animals and other living organisms are large or small irrespective of size living together in a particular system. Ecosystem not only indicates the food habitat also the way organisms are living in harmony. This results in the balance of life. There are different types of levels in the ecosystem.

Complete answer:
Option A) Running water ecosystem- running water or flowing water ecosystem is nothing but water which flows constantly. Some examples like- waterfalls, creeks, streams and rivers. The water in these tributaries can sometimes be fast and cannot support plants. If there are no chances of plants growing then it cannot support animals living in the water too.
So, option A is not correct.
Option B) Lentic aquatic ecosystem- lentic aquatic ecosystem referred to no other like flowing or running aquatic ecosystem. Ponds, marshes, ditches, lakes, and swamps make up lentic habitats, which are made up of still water. These ecosystems range in size from very small ponds or pools that may be temporary to large lakes. The term lentic refers to standing or slow or motionless water. Examples are- lakes, ponds or swamps and marshes.
So, option B is the correct answer.
Option C) Lotic ecosystem- lotic ecosystem referred to the running water habitats such as river or streams or waterfalls etc. a lotic ecosystem can be any kind of moving water such as run, creek, channel, brook etc. it is same as the running water ecosystem.
Option C is not correct.
Option D) Lake’s ecosystem- a lake ecosystem includes all types of life grown here. Like biotic plants, animals and microorganisms, as well as abiotic physical and chemical interactions. Lake ecosystems are a prime example of a lentic ecosystem. In many articles it applies to lentic in general also.
So, option D is not correct.

So, Option B is the correct answer.

Note:
As we discussed about the types of ecosystems which contain life and which does not. It is an area where plants and animals as well as weather landscapes work together to form a bubble of life. The four types of ecosystems are- artificial, terrestrial, lentic and lotic systems. The living beings and the physical components are linked together through nutrient cycles and energy flows.
