Answer:
limiting factor
Explanation:
In an ecosystem, certain factors hinder the growth or abundance of the population of organisms. These factors are called LIMITING FACTORS. Limiting factors, which can be biotic, food, drought, predation, disease etc, are factors that inhibits a population of organism from becoming enlarged. There are two types of limiting factors viz: density dependent (depends on size) and density independent (not dependent on size).
This is the case of a drought that dries up the stream that inhabits a population of salamanders. The drought causes the unavailability of water, which will ultimately have an effect on the growth of the salamander population. Hence, the DROUGHT is considered a LIMITING FACTOR.

The answer is A cuz a food chain starts with solar energy
Answer:
The correct answer is
1. A rabbit living in a desert has long ears to disperse heat- abiotic factor.
2. A moth immediately dives to the ground when it hears a bat- biotic factor.
3. A lizard stays warm by sunning itself on a rock- abiotic factor.
4. A cactus has spines instead of leaves to help conserve water- abiotic factors.
5. A petunia is bright red to attract hummingbirds- biotic factor.
6. A stick-bug blends in with trees to hide from predators- biotic factor.
Explanation:-
The environment includes both abiotic and biotic factors which can affect the ecosystem. Living elements like plants and animals which affect ecosystem are known as biotic factors while the non-living elements which include air, water, temperature are called abiotic factors.
In the given question the options affected by the biotic factors due to bat, due to hummingbirds and due to predators.
Options affected by the abiotic factors due to heat and due to water.
