More importantly, the living things are very dependent on the abiotic community since it cannot survive by itself. Every animal, plant and human needs the primary physiological needs of water, food and shelter provided by the abiotic system. <span> </span> Biotic factors: Plants Microorganisms Macroorganisms
This is because light energy is needed for plants to carry out photosynthesis. When plants photosynthesize, they absorb carbon dioxide gas and give out oxygen gas.
