The correct option is:
**C. a worm, a biotic factor, as it pulls the worm up from the ground for food.**
This is because a worm is a living organism, making it a biotic factor, and the bird interacts with it for food. In options A and B, the bird is interacting with abiotic factors (non-living), which do not involve interaction with living organisms. Option D incorrectly identifies soil as a biotic factor; soil is considered an abiotic factor, although it can host biotic factors like organisms living within it.
