Ecology needs to study the biotic and abiotic elements because **it is studying the ecosystem**. Understanding both the living (biotic) components, such as plants, animals, and microorganisms, and the non-living (abiotic) components, such as water, soil, and climate, is essential for comprehensively understanding the interactions and relationships within an ecosystem.
