To solve this task, we need to identify the
abiotic and
biotic factors present in the image.
---
🔍 Definitions:
-
Abiotic factors: Non-living components of an ecosystem (e.g., sunlight, water, air, soil, temperature, rocks).
-
Biotic factors: Living components of an ecosystem (e.g., plants, animals, fungi, bacteria).

🖼️ Image Analysis:
The image shows a desert landscape with:
- A
sun shining
-
Clouds in the sky
- A
blue sky
-
Sand and
rocks
-
Cacti (plants)
- A
lizard
- A
spider
- A
snail
-
Mountains in the background
- A
river or stream
-
Snow on the mountains
-
Stars and a
moon (possibly indicating night or day transition)

✔ Solution:
Let’s list the abiotic and biotic factors based on the image.
#### 🔹 Abiotic Factors (Non-living):
| Abiotic Factors |
|-----------------|
| Sunlight (Sun) |
| Clouds |
| Sky (atmosphere) |
| Sand |
| Rocks |
| Mountains |
| Snow |
| Water (river/stream) |
| Air (implied by weather and sky) |
| Temperature (implied by desert and snow) |
> Note: The presence of stars and moon indicates time of day, but these are not direct environmental factors. However, they influence light cycles, so
sunlight and
night/day cycle are important abiotic factors.
---
#### 🔹 Biotic Factors (Living organisms):
| Biotic Factors |
|----------------|
| Cactus (plant) |
| Lizard (animal) |
| Spider (animal) |
| Snail (animal) |
| Trees (in the green area) |
| Insects (possible on cactus or in soil) |
| Microorganisms (implied in soil) |
> Note: Although not explicitly shown, soil contains microorganisms and decomposers, which are biotic factors. But since the image doesn't show them directly, we focus only on visible living things.
---
✔ Final Answer Table:
| Abiotic Factors | Biotic Factors |
|------------------------|--------------------------|
| Sunlight | Cactus |
| Clouds | Lizard |
| Sky | Spider |
| Sand | Snail |
| Rocks | Trees (in green area) |
| Mountains | Insects (implied) |
| Snow | — |
| River/Stream (water) | — |
| Air | — |
> *Note: Only clearly visible biotic and abiotic elements are listed. Some entries like "insects" are inferred from context.*
---
✔ Summary:
-
Abiotic factors include physical and chemical elements: sun, clouds, sand, water, rocks, mountains, snow, etc.
-
Biotic factors include all living organisms: cacti, lizard, spider, snail, trees.
This completes the task!
