Because it never lived... Its not a living thing

The correct answer is "Because it never lived ".

The reason why we consider water as abiotic because it never had life. We term a molecule/compound as biotic only when it is resulted from a living thing. Water has always existed in nature even when there was no life on this earth. So, it simply means that it didn't result from living beings. Water is considered as the non living part of the environment. Also, second option is partially correct because like begets like. But, the first living cell was also evolved from non living components of earth which is an exception to the second statement. So, the most appropriate answer to this question is option 4th "it never lived".

The diagram shows the position of earth during solstice. select the area that would be getting around 24 hours of daylight each
jeka57 [31]

The answer is Artic Circle Zone (red square at the top)

Explanation:

A solstice occurs two times in a year when the Sun reaches farther either the south or the north of Earth. In the image presented, there is a solstice because the sunlight reachers farther in the North. Additionally, this phenomenon occurs due to the tilt (inclination) of Earth, and it increases the number of daylight/night hours in different zones.

In the case of the Arctic Circle Zone (north pole) it is likely during the solstice, this zone has around 24 of daylight each day because almost all this zone is directly exposed to the sunlight, and therefore this will always be reached by sunrays despite the rotation of Earth (rotation of Earth in its axis). On the other hand, other zones will not be exposed to sunlight all the time because the location and rotation will cause these areas are in the dark zone of Earth during specific hours every day.
