Claudia Salazar · Answer 1

An ecosystem is made up of animals, plants and bacteria as well as the physical and chemical environment they live in. The living parts of an ecosystem are called biotic factors while the environmental factors that they interact with are called abiotic factors.

Rebecca · Answer 2

Abiotic components of an ecosystem consist of the nonorganic aspects of the environment that determine what life forms can thrive.

The biotic components of an ecosystem are the life forms that inhabit it. The life forms of an ecosystem aid in the transfer and cycle of energy.
