We are surrounded by nature from birth, its beauty and we alth form the inner world of a person, cause admiration and rapture. What can I say, we ourselves are also part of it. And along with animals, birds, plants, we are components of the so-called wildlife. This also includes fungi, insects, fish, and even viruses and microbes. But what are the objects of inanimate nature in this case?
The natural sciences study this part of the world. And if, as can be logically assumed, everything that is inherent in life belongs to living nature, then everything else can be attributed to inanimate nature. What exactly, we will discuss further. And the very first thing worth talking about is the four main elements.
Objects
First of all, inanimate nature is the earth itself, as well as parts of the earth's landscape: sand, stone, fossils and minerals. Even dust can be attributed to the same "company", because it is an accumulation of small particles of all of the above. Also inanimate nature is the worldthe ocean and every drop of water in it. In general, our planet is covered with moisture by 71%. It is found both deep underground and in the air we breathe. And all these are also objects of inanimate nature.
Air also belongs to this category. But the microorganisms inhabiting it are already quite living nature. But smells and wind fall under the phenomena we describe. Also inanimate nature is fire. Although it is, perhaps, more often than other elements, it is represented as animated in human culture.
Examples
Well, I want to clearly show what inanimate nature is. Examples of its objects are extremely diverse: these are all the winds blowing on the planet, and every lake or puddle, and mountains, and deserts. Inanimate nature includes sunlight and moonlight. It is also represented by all kinds of weather phenomena: from rain to tornadoes and northern lights. In general, inanimate nature is the combination of factors and conditions in which we live.
Conclusion
At the same time, it would be wrong to separate it from wildlife: both varieties are symbionts and influence each other. So, people, animals, bacteria - all species evolve in the course of their existence, that is, they adapt to existing conditions. In turn, the vital activity of each creature forms and changes the inanimate nature. In the case of animals, this is soil fertilization, burrowing. In the case of people - a more global processing of the landscape, the use of usefulfossils, construction of cities. Almost all human activity is aimed at changing inanimate nature for the sake of their own goals. Unfortunately, this kind of behavior does not always lead to positive results. Due to human impact, water bodies dry up, the soil layer is depleted as a result of improperly organized agricultural activities, glaciers are melting, and the ozone layer is being destroyed. Therefore, it should be remembered that not only animals and birds require protection from extinction. Inanimate objects also often need to be protected from barbaric human use.
