Answer:
Biotic factors can be described as the living components of a system. Abiotic factors can be described as the non- living components of an ecosystem. The abiotic and biotic components of an ecosystem are linked to each other by the flow of energy.
Energy usually enters an ecosystem through the abiotic factor, i.e Sun in the form of heat. This energy is essential so that the biotic component, plants, can make their own food. Some of the heat energy is dissipated back into the atmosphere in the form of heat. Rest, the energy is directed to herbivores, carnivores and decomposers. All these organisms also dissipate some of the heat energy back into the atmosphere.
