The characteristic that would tell you that the object is abiotic, or not alive, is:

**The object cannot produce energy.**

This indicates that the object does not have the metabolic processes that living organisms possess, which are necessary for obtaining and utilizing energy.

The initial rise in the line of the graph is an example of population growth in a species as a result of:

**an increase in food supply.**

Increased food availability typically supports higher population growth as it provides more resources for survival and reproduction.

The correct description of the difference between biotic and abiotic factors is:

**abiotic is non-living and biotic is living.**

Biotic factors refer to all living organisms in an ecosystem, while abiotic factors refer to the non-living physical and chemical components of the environment, such as water, sunlight, soil, and temperature.

The correct list of factors that will limit the carrying capacity of a species is:

**food supply and habitat space.**

These two factors are critical in determining how many individuals of a species can be supported in a given environment. Limited food supply can restrict growth and reproduction, while limited habitat space can reduce areas for nesting, foraging, and shelter.
