Determining the health of an ecosystem relies on key indicators that reflect its overall stability and functionality. Biodiversity stands out as a fundamental measure, emphasizing the variety of species present within the ecosystem. A diverse ecosystem, with numerous species interacting and coexisting, tends to exhibit greater resilience to environmental changes and disturbances. Additionally, the population size and diversity of organisms within the ecosystem play a crucial role. Stable populations of various species, adapted to their specific niches, signify a healthy ecosystem. While factors such as the complexity of food chains and the availability of natural resources contribute to ecosystem dynamics, they are secondary to the primary indicators of biodiversity and population dynamics in assessing the overall health of an ecosystem.
