popcorn kernels aren't living things
Explanation:
characteristics they have that show proof they are living organisms:
• movement when exposed to heat
• irritability/sensitivity since they react to change of temperature
• growth since when they are exposed to high temperatures they grow and become bigger
We can determine if they are living or not by:
• seeing if they respire
• seeing if they need nourishment
• seeing if they can excrete
• seeing if they can reproduce
In conclusion they aren't living things
<span>a. they did not co-evolve with the natural species and lack natural controls, like predators</span>
Biotic Factors depend/rely on abiotic factors because living things (biotic) need nonliving things (abiotic) to survive. Biotic rely on other Biotic factors because they need the food and resources from other living things.
For example, we (biotic factors) need energy from the sun and oxygen/air ,which is abiotic factors, to live and grow. Just like plants (biotic) need the sun's energy (abiotic) to help it grow.
