science help plzzzzz http://prntscr.com/i2sjf3 1. Which biotic factors do you see in the photo? 2. Which abiotic factors can you detect in this photo? 3. In what ways does one biotic factor interact with the abiotic factors? 4. Pick one biotic factor and change it dramatically somehow. How will this change affect the aquarium?

JustSaiyan:

The biotic factors would be the fish

iosangel:

what about the little grass?

JustSaiyan:

There aren't any organisms in the ocean that feed off of it, that would really be substantial enough to effect it.

JustSaiyan:

The abiotic factors would be the water, and any predators in the vicinity.

JustSaiyan:

If a human were to dump waste into the water, it would negatively impact the fish whom are indigenous to that area, decreasing their population, and thus decreasing the food source for that species natural predator, causing an unbalanced ecosystem.

JustSaiyan:

If you were to increase the number of this fish in the aquarium, this would mean we would have to increase the aquariums size. If we were to not increase the size, it would cause the fish to die, and as each fish dies, it will taint the water further and further, killing off any fish that would have survived without the overpopulation.

iosangel:

thank you so much!

JustSaiyan:

You're welcome.
