D. climate
how? wouldn't it be disease?
Abiotic factors are non-living factors that can limit the growth and abundance of a population. Climate, which includes temperature, precipitation, sunlight, and other physical factors, would be considered an abiotic factor because it is not living. Disease, on the other hand, is a biotic factor because it involves interactions with living organisms (pathogens). So in this case, the correct answer would be D. climate.
