Answer:
<em>Yes, the abiotic components interact with the biotic components in an ecosystem.</em>
Explanation:
The abiotic components are the non- living components of an ecosystem. The biotic components are the living components of an ecosystem. Abiotic factors such as sunlight, temperature etc directly affect the biotic components.
For example, the light of the sun is an abiotic component which provides energy to the biotic components, plants, to produce food. Soil is also an abiotic component which provides nutrients and water for the plants which are biotic components.

Answer:
The correct option is A. Steroid hormones exert their action by entering the nucleus of a cell and initiating or altering the expression of a gene.
Explanation:
Steroid hormones are derived from cholesterol and regulate multiple biological processes. All steroid hormones exert their action by crossing the plasma membrane and by binding with their respective intracellular receptors. They stimulate cell growth in a very different way, their lipophilic nature gives them the ability to cross lipid barriers, so, without the need for extracellular signals, these hormones can easily enter the cell, cross the cytoplasm and reach the nucleus. There they bind to specific receptors that are associated with DNA promoter regions, modifying their structure and promoting the expression of the genes under their control.
I believe the answer is C) is different lengths of time for different types of cells.
