Abstract

The ecological balance is a stable state between all plants and animals in an ecosystem and destabilization of this stable state is ecological imbalance that in turn exerts serious threats to widespread nature of biodiversity. The ecological balance is sustained by the cyclic flow of materials from abiotic environment to the biosphere and then back to the abiotic environment and upholding the equilibrium of interaction inside food webs. Both these processes must be maintained in the ecosystem and any interference with these cycles disrupts and affects the ecological balance. The ecological balance is currently a necessity to maintain the rich and varied diversity of animals, plants and microbial life, which is essential for mutual survival and existence of all living beings including human.

Keywords: Ecological Balance; Flora; Fauna; Biological Diversity; Ecosystem; Eco-Friendly; Survival.
