Which is biotic? water temperature beeswax snow
Luden [163]
Bees wax is biotic. 

Biotic means something that is related to or resulted from living things. Bio means life. Bees wax are produced by honey bees. It comes from a living thing, thus, it is biotic.

Water, temperature, and snow are all abiotic. Abiotic means "no life" or nonliving. They are not derived from any living thing.
