Abiotic Factors

Explain how a change in a specific abiotic factor would affect a given community when provided with appropriate data or context.

Identify and describe key abiotic (non-living) factors that influence communities, including light intensity, temperature, moisture levels, soil pH, and mineral content.

Identify additional abiotic factors such as wind intensity and direction, carbon dioxide levels for plants, and oxygen levels for aquatic animals.

Extract and interpret information from charts, graphs, and tables detailing the direct effects of abiotic factors on organisms within a community.
