What poses a great threat to the entire human species;poisonous abiotic factors or poisonous biotic factors?
jolli1 [7]
Well, biotic factors are living things in an ecosystem such as animals or insects. Abiotic factors are non living things in an ecosystem such as sunlight or temperature. I would say biotic factors would be more harmful since this includes bacteria or other diseases, not many abiotic factors would pose a great threat to the entire human species. Hope this helped.
