The two ecosystem that are very different but similar in some aspects are the woodlands ecosystem and the desert ecosystem. The woodlands have a very wet and cold atmosphere in comparison to the desert which feels dry and sticky. These temperatures is what determines the distinct offsprings that live in each ecosystems.
