The living factor that influences the survival of an organism in an ecosystem from the options provided is other organisms. This includes interactions with other species, such as competition, predation, and symbiosis, which can directly affect an organism's survival and reproductive success. The other options listed (soil composition, amount of sunlight, temperature range, and amount of water) are non-living (abiotic) factors that also influence survival.
All living organisms have basic needs. As a result, the number and kind of organisms that an ecosystem can support are limited by the available resources in that ecosystem.
Which of the following is a living factor that influences the survival of an organism in an ecosystem?
other organisms
soil composition
amount of sunlight
temperature range
amount of water
