In the context of a microscopic model of a freshwater biome, the broadest level of ecological hierarchy you would encounter is ecosystem. An ecosystem includes all the living organisms (microorganisms, plants, animals) and the non-living components (water, minerals, soil) interacting in that environment.
Use the scenario to answer the question.
For a class assignment, you need to study a microscopic model of a freshwater biome.
