Does it involve abiotic factors, biotic factors or both: Competition

Question

Group of answer choices

Both

Abiotic

Neither

Biotic

Answer 1

Competition primarily involves biotic factors. It refers to the interaction between organisms (such as plants, animals, or microorganisms) that vie for the same resources, such as food, space, or mates. While abiotic factors (like temperature, light, and water) can influence competition by affecting resource availability, the competition itself is a direct interaction between living organisms. Therefore, the correct answer is Biotic.
