BIOTIC and ABIOTIC

FACTORS IN AN
ECOSYSTEM
 What is ECOSYSTEM???
Ecosystem is the
relationship between biotic
factors and abiotic factors in
a certain place.
 TWO COMPONENTS OF
ECOSYTEM
1. Biotic
2. Abiotic
 TWO COMPONENTS OF
ECOSYTEM
1. Biotic – means living.
2. Abiotic – means nonliving.
ABIOTIC FACTORS
 ABIOTIC FACTORS

Abiotic factors include:

1.Water
2.Soil
3.Temperature
 ABIOTIC FACTORS

Abiotic factors include:

5. Oxygen
6. Amount of sunlight
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
1. Water
Water is very
essential
thing for
organisms.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
1. Water
Without water,
plants will wither
and animals will
dehydrate until
they die.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
1. Water
The earth’s
surface has plenty
of water for
organisms to use
and to live in.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
1. Water
Earths water can
be categorized:
Freshwater and
Saltwater.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
2. Soil
Soil is a major
factor for plants
and
underground
animals.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
2. Soil
Soil is a major
factor for plants
and
underground
animals.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
2. Soil
It also includes the
minerals and rocks
found over and
underneath the
surface.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
2. Soil
The soils nutrients
and moisture are
essential to help
plants grow
healthy.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
3. Oxygen
The amount of oxygen
in an area also
dictates the number of
animals that can live in
a particular area.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
3. Oxygen
The more animals
that consume the
oxygen, the more
difficult breathing
would be for them.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
4. Temperature
Temperature is an
essential factor in
an ecosystem.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
4. Temperature
Some of organisms
can only survive in
places that have
the right
temperature.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
4. Temperature
Temperature is
also one of the
reasons why
some animals
migrate.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
5. Amount of Sunlight
The main source of
energy and warmth
on Earth is the sun.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
5. Amount of Sunlight
Plants and other
organisms that can
perform
photosynthesis
depend on the suns
light for their food.
 ABIOTIC FACTORS:
5. Amount of Sunlight
Without sufficient
amount of sunlight,
plants will have
trouble getting
their own food.
