How balance in nature important for …

A concept in ecology that describes natural systems as being in a state of equilibrium, in which disturbing one element disturbs the entire system. The inference is usually drawn that the natural state of any system is the preferred state and that it is best to leave it undisturbed. 

Ecological balance is a term used to describe the equilibrium between living organisms such as human being, plants, and animals as well as their environment. Photosynthesis that takes place in ecosystem contributes to building a good environment that stabilizes the coexistence of all organisms. Harmonious relationships reflect healthy and desirable ecological balance. Human being plays a key role to maintain ecological balance because they have the highest thinking capacity as compared to other living organisms. Sufficient food availability to all living organisms and their stability reflect the existence of ecological balance. Therefore, this balance is very important because it ensures survival, existence and stability of the environment.

Survival of all organisms is actualized due to ecological balance. Various species survive because favourable ecosystems were created. Favourable ecosystem ensures that each organism thrives and multiply as expected. They get enough food to keep them alive. Ecological balance is also important because it leads to the continued existence of the organisms. It ensures that no particular species is exploited or overused. For example, human activities such as farming and resources exploitation are checked to prevent excessive destruction of the forests. Deforestation leads to drought. Drought reduces food production resulting in insufficient food. Insufficient food leads to starvation and later death occurs, hence reducing the existence of some species.

In addition, ecological balance ensures the stability of the organisms and the environment. It creates a conducive environment for organisms multiplication and thriving. It enhances a stable environment that is free from ecological imbalances such as flood, hunger caused by drought, a windstorm that may wipe out everything and over hunting of the predators.
