What biotic and abiotic factors can be found in an ecosystem?
That makes sense. Can you give me an example of one such interaction?
Sure. Let's take the example of a forest ecosystem. The amount of sunlight the forest receives affects the growth and distribution of trees, which in turn affects the availability of food and shelter for animals that live in the forest. The temperature and humidity of the forest affect the rate of decomposition of organic matter on the forest floor, which in turn affects soil quality and nutrient availability for the plants. And water availability affects the growth and distribution of both plants and animals.
