insects would appear. The wind would blow the seeds of small trees. These trees would grow and birds and animals would appear.
Evolution. During long periods of time ecosystems evolve. The evolution of an ecosystem is caused by factors inside and outside it.
Consider the evolution of the atmosphere: when life began there was no oxygen in the atmosphere. Consequently, the sun's rays prevented life from developing on land. The first living organisms developed under the sea. Afier the evolution of photosynthesis, the oxygen in the atmosphere increased and life expanded. Complex living organisms developed. As the oxygen in the atmosphere increased, a layer of ozone was formed, life would be impossible without it on the surface of the Earth.
Today life on the Earth is in danger: man himself might destroy the equilibrium of ecosystem by pollution, extinction of wildlife and unreasonable utilization of the globe's material resource.
