Answer:
The 2 ways abiotic factors affect biotic factors are as follows:
- An alligator submerges itself under water to stay cool in the summer.
- A naked mole rat creates burrows underground.
Explanation:
Abiotic Factors:
All non-living factors that is present or influences an ecosystem. Abiotic factors determine the dynamics of an ecosystem such as the terrain, the atmosphere as well as the inhabitant flora and fauna. Water, sunlight, oxygen, temperature, and soil are all abiotic factors.
Biotic Factors:
All living factors in an ecosystem i.e. the plants and animals.
Lets analyze all the options:
- A bird picking food out of an alligator's teeth is an interaction between 2 biotic factors, the bird and the alligator or in another case, the bird and the food.
- Water being oxygenated is an interaction between 2 abiotic factors: water and oxygen.
when a cold front overtakes a warm front
when two different air masses meet. A front is usually either cold or warm based on the way the masses are colliding which can either result in a drop or an increase in temperature. This is useful because this is how cyclones work and this can help with seeing precipitation patterns that will occur.
