Sunlight, soil, water, and pollution, for example, are all important abiotic factors of an environment that affect life. The biotic environment, on the other hand, is composed of all the living organisms in an ecosystem, and includes factors such as disease, predators, prey, and human activity.
Abiotic factor examples include temperature, wind speed, and humidity. An abiotic factor is any component that is not a living organism that affects the organisms in the ecosystem. Abiotic factors related to climate include temperature, wind speed, humidity, amount of sunlight, and shade. Abiotic factors can also be in the soil and include things such as pH and mineral content.
