### Photosynthesis
- Plants use the sun to make energy in the form of glucose or sugar.
- Animals cannot make their own food (glucose, energy)

- Must get our food from plants.

- Carbon Dioxide + Water & Light energy = Sugar + Oxygen.
- The energy are stored in the plants stems, leaves, roots and seeds.

## Introducing Ecosystems
- Most ecosystems are **SUSTAINABLE**.
- Usually, a bigger food web/food chains are more sustainable, as its more resilent to change.

- The natural ecosystem is more sustainable, as there is a abudance of biodiversity, unlike argoecosystem which are usually monocultured. Which is unsustainble.
- We need both of these ecosystems, as we are in need of very fast supply of certain foods due to the vast demand of it.
- Leaching happens in agroecosystems, where nitrogen rich water from fertilizers seep into the soil. This causes nutrients to dissolve in water and seep out of the soil. Increase growth of algae, (think eurotrophication).
