Henry Louis Le Chatelier who formulated the popular principle called Le Chatelier's principle that refers to the equilibrium of a chemical system. The principle defines that if a chemical system at equilibrium experiences a change in concentration, temperature, volume or partial pressurethen the equilibrium shifts to counteract the imposed change and a new equilibrium is established. This principle is widely taught to students of chemistry.
A parallel to the above can be seen in physics is called Newton's law of inertia. The law of inertia and Le Chatelier principle deals with stability or equilibrium. Do you know the Le Chatelier principle is more relevant to biology and ecology?
In a well balanced producer-consumer-carnivore' ecosystem, any change to the population size of producer or consumer or carnivore, the equilibrium will get affected and the ecosystem will try to get readjusted to the new change.
When the population of rats increases in the paddy field, so does the population of rat snakes. Contrary to that, the yield of the paddy crop would decrease to check the population of rat. That is how the law of cybernetics is preserved in the nature.
How nature follows the law of cybernetics so perfectly, and does the necessary check and balance. Everything in nature follows certain law of uniformity, regularity & continuity and that is how the successful co-existence or mutual existence is assured to all the life forms. In fact, the predator ensures the availability of the prey and prey will ensure the availability of the predator to control their population and sustain the ecosystem.
The ecological pyramid and arrangement of different life forms based on different trophic level itself is only to achieve Le Chatelier principle.
Do you know what was the gravest mistake nature has done? It had facilitated the creation of man. How come the nature that follow different laws and forecast the events with great precision and perfection failed to understand that its final product man? who will prove so ruthlessly all the wonderful laws and equations of nature are shattered and destroyed, questions and challenge the very existence the nature that has produced him?.
Yes, that was the error nature has done. The veracity and punishment to the error differ from people who do it. A head of the organization does a mistake, the impact will be greater and so will the repercussions, while a person from the middle management does a mistake, the impact will be largely limited to the section concerned.
Nature being the creator of the entire life, a small error is also an error deserve punishment. Yes, that is logic of man, the destroyer of the nature.
