Question

Which of the following is not an example of an abiotic factor?

Answer 1

Well where are the following?

Answer 2

Abiotic means nonliving. Abiotic factors are elements of an ecosystem that are physical or chemical in nature as opposed to biological. For example, an organism interacts with biotic factors of an ecosystem, such as prey, predators, parasites, competitors, and decomposers. Abiotic factors that would affect it include things like temperature, sunlight, precipitation, wind, air quality, soil composition, local geology, etc. I can't say what the correct answer is without knowing the specific factors you are supposed to choose from, but if you compare them to the definition of abiotic factor, you should be able to figure it out.
