Question

Name the abiotic and biotic components of a habitat. with the help of an example, explain how the abiotic components affect the biotic components.​

Answer 1

The biotic and abiotic components of the environment are described below:

Explanation:

• Abiotic components can be described the non-living component of an ecosystem. The abiotic components include air, water, humidity, sunlight, climate, weather

• On the other hand, biotic components are described as the living components of an ecosystem. The biotic components include animals, plants, viruses etc present in an environment.

• The abiotic conditions determine which organisms will be able to survive in a particular environment.

• For example, camels have the ability to survive without food for many days and to store water in their bodies. Hence, a camel will be able to survive in an environment where there is less water but a fish or bear will not be able to survive in an environment with such abiotic conditions.
