THE LIVING | THE NONLIVING | THE DEAD
BIOTIC AND ABIOTIC FACTORS
FOR YOUR NOTEBOOK
Biotic factors- living factors in an organism’s environment
Organisms living in a community
Interactions among organisms are necessary for the health of all species in the same geographic location
Use the button below to fill in the following bullet points.
Five types of biotic factors:
Abiotic factors- nonliving factors in an organism’s environment
Six abiotic factors
How are nonliving things different from dead things?
Nonliving- things that have never lived or shown life
Dead- things that were part of something living (plant or animal), but now show no sign of life
Limiting Factors- any abiotic or biotic factor that restricts the numbers, reproduction, or distribution of organisms (we will revisit later)
Think about how all the biotic and abiotic factors interact in one small community
