Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf B. \ Rocky \ desert \ soil}}

Explanation:

An abiotic factor is a part of an ecosytem, but it is not alive. Some examples include water, rocks, sunlight, and the atmosphere.

On the other hand, a biotic factor is a living part of an ecosystem. Some examples are animals, plants, and fungi.

Let's look at the answer choices.

A creosote plant (choice A) kangaroo rat (choice C) and coyote (choice D) are all living organisms. Therefore, they must be biotic factors.

However, rocky desert soil (choice B) is not living. It's a part of the ecosystem, but since it's not alive it must be <u>abiotic.</u>
