Answer:

Biotic factors can be described as all the living factors that are present in an environment or ecosystem. Abiotic factors can be described as all the non- living components that are present in an environment or ecosystem. Abiotic factors determine which organisms are capable of surviving in a particular environment. The biotic factors determine the interaction of an organism with other organisms of an ecosystem.

Examples of biotic factors include the plants, animals and humans. Examples for abiotic factors include the sun, water etc.
