Because of the abundance of water‚ a healthy wetland will support a vast number of plant and animal life. This is an important part of the ecosystem as it provides many animals with a natural habitat where food is easily accessible and plants are close enough to a water source to allow for sufficient growth and

You examined the core concept of an ecosystem through the example of a rock pool. Guidance as to how to study ecosystems was provided through the case study of Wicken Fen.
