Let’s solve this step by step.
First, remember:
-
Biotic factors = living things (animals, plants, fungi, etc.)
-
Abiotic factors = non-living things (water, sun, rocks, air, etc.)
Now, look at the picture and find 4 biotic and 4 abiotic things.
Step 1: Find Biotic Factors (living things)
In the image, we can see:
- Bear → alive → biotic
- Deer → alive → biotic
- Fox → alive → biotic
- Snail → alive → biotic
- Hedgehog → alive → biotic
- Trees → alive → biotic
- Grass/flowers → alive → biotic
- Mushroom → fungus → alive → biotic
- Ladybug → insect → alive → biotic
We only need 4. Let’s pick:
→ Bear
→ Deer
→ Fox
→ Snail
(You could also choose hedgehog, trees, grass, mushroom — any 4 living things are fine!)
Step 2: Find Abiotic Factors (non-living things)
In the image, we can see:
- River/water → not alive → abiotic
- Sun → not alive → abiotic
- Clouds → made of water vapor → not alive → abiotic
- Mountains → rock → not alive → abiotic
- Rocks on ground → not alive → abiotic
- Sky → air → not alive → abiotic
- Soil/dirt → not alive → abiotic
We only need 4. Let’s pick:
→ Water (river)
→ Sun
→ Rocks
→ Clouds
(Again, you could choose mountains, sky, soil — any 4 non-living things work!)
✔ Double-check:
- All biotic choices are living → yes
- All abiotic choices are non-living → yes
- We have exactly 4 for each → perfect!
Final Answer:
Biotic: Bear, Deer, Fox, Snail
Abiotic: Water, Sun, Rocks, Clouds
