Answer:
Biotic: <em>Food availability</em>
Abiotic: <em>Temperature</em>
Explanation:
There are two types of limiting factors for biodiversity: biotic and abiotic. Biotic refers to living things, for example, organisms that are an important food source. <u>Most animal life forms in the ocean highly depend on the availability of a food source</u>. If food is limited or scarce, the populations of a given species could face significant declines.
On the other hand, there are abiotic factors, which refer to factors that are not alive, such as physical factors. For instance, temperature and light. <u>For marine organisms, temperature is a critical factor.</u> Even an increase of 'only' 1 ºC could make a huge difference in the survival of a species as it could disrupt their ability to forage, hunt, or perform physiological processes, <em>e.g.</em> metabolism.
Therefore, <u>if we refer to a biotic factor, food availability is a limiting factor for most animal life in the open ocean, whereas, if the refer to an abiotic factor, temperature (and light) are limiting factors for pelagic life.</u>
The CPT code that should be reported by the obsterician is 76816.
CPT codes used for obstetrician ultrasound ranges from 76801 to 76821. The description of the codes is based on the procedures that are carried out.
CPT code 76816 is used to bill a follow up study. The medical examination perform in this case include: re-assessing the size and the interval growth of the fetus and examination of abnormality previously observed on previous scan. <span />
