Ecosystem Services
Benefits that humans obtain from ecosystems, including provisioning, regulating, supporting, and cultural services.
Real World
Bee pollination — a regulating ecosystem service — contributes an estimated £690 million per year to UK agriculture; the decline in bee populations directly threatens crop yields for farmers.
Exam Focus
Classify each service into its correct category (provisioning, regulating, supporting, cultural) — misclassification loses easy marks.
