Sunlight, air, water, soil, and temperature are some examples of abiotic components of the environment.
Even though these components are themselves non-living, they do have an effect on the living organisms, that is, the biotic components of the environment.
A group of interdependent organisms that live in the same region and interact with one another form a biotic community.
A biotic community includes plants, animals, and microorganisms.
Each organism lives in a particular area where it finds food and other resources it needs to survive.
The area where a particular organism naturally lives is called its habitat.
There is a close interaction between living organisms and these abiotic components. An organism's habitat includes abiotic components such as light, temperature, air, water, and soil.
