"Now many of you touched on points and aspects which make up ecosystems... characterises them and shapes them into what they are. Things to consider, when studying ecosystems," which is what they were doing, so notes on the following would be handy for them later, "... include solar energy, moisture, minerals, nutrients, soil, organisms and disturbances."

Now came the crucial part, which would significantly influence their success in this course of study...
"Why... would understanding ecosystems be important to the study of herbology? What can we gain from this?"

OOC: The lesson will continue in approximately 12 hours. Remember not to edit your posts. There are no limitations in how you choose to answer this question.


Okay, Selina was sort of glad that she had kept her hand down for that question. She really would have looked like a flopping fish trying to answer that question. After all... she was not a textbook. Selina really enjoyed Herbology but the extent of what she knew she could was what she could derive from logic and what she had previously learned in the class. SO the redhead USUALLY just sat back and let other people do, you know, the definition part of the class. She was totally NOT going to pretend she knew the answer.

OH OH OH! But she could answer this question. It was more of a subjective answer. So she raised her hand and replied, "Well, Professor... I think in everything, but especially herbology, everything is interconnected. So like if we learn about that ecosystem thing, yeah, then we would have a better grasp on the plant life IN the ecosystem." That made sense, yes?
