Biotic and abiotic factors are the environmental conditions that the organisms have to face to live in a specified environment.
-Abiotic factors-
Abiotic factors are the physical and chemical conditions of an environment. For example : heat, salinity, pressure, light, wind, pH ...
-Biotic factors-
Biotic factors are all the biological conditions of an environment for a specie/taxa. It can include prey and predator abundance, available food amount, available space, intra and interspecific competition...
The development of organims is under the control of abiotic factors. Some are adapted to heat, cold etc ... The abiotic factors will define which organisms are able or not to live in a specified place.
The living organisms will constitute the biotic factors, which define if and how can an organism live in a specified environment.
So, the abiotic factors are controling the biotic factors of an environment.

Answer:
Both diseases affect the control of voluntary muscles.
Explanation:
Parkinson's disease is a progressive brain disease that affects movement. It affects the nerve cells that produce dopamine in the part of the brain called substantia nigra. The symptoms include shaking, stiffness, and difficulty with walking, balance, and coordination. Symptoms get worse with time, often leaving people with difficulty walking and talking.
ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) is a progressive nervous system disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. The first symptoms usually involve muscle weakness, and as the disease progresses, it results in the loss of muscle control.
Scientists don't know the exact cause of these diseases. As the cause is not known, there is no exact way to prevent them. There is no cure for them, either. The treatment is focused on the management of symptoms.
This is why the third option is the correct one.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
a) The magnitude of intermolecular forces in compounds affects the boiling points of the compound. Neon has London dispersion forces as the only intermolecular forces operating in the substance while HF has dipole dipole interaction and strong hydrogen bonds operating in the molecule hence HF exhibits a much higher boiling point than Ne though they have similar molecular masses.
b) The boiling points of the halogen halides are much higher than that of the noble gases because the halogen halides have much higher molecular masses and stronger intermolecular forces between molecules compared to the noble gases.
Also, the change in boiling point of the hydrogen halides is much more marked(decreases rapidly) due to decrease in the magnitude of hydrogen bonding from HF to HI. The boiling point of the noble gases increases rapidly down the group as the molecular mass of the gases increases.
