A group of birds eat fruit from a tree. The fruit falls to the ground where

mice eat the remainder of the fruit. Seeds from the fruit are spread

around by the mice and new trees begin to grow in the soil. Which of the

following correctly describe biotic and abiotic interactions? *

The birds and mice eating the fruit are biotic factors interacting with biotic factors

O

The seeds spread out by mice is a biotic factor interacting with an abiotic factor

The seeds in the soil grow into new trees are biotic factors interacting with an abiotic

factor

Bella Macdonald · Answer 1

Both answer choice 2 and answer choice 3 are correct choices.

Explanation:

Biotic factors are living components in an ecosystem. They are living organisms which affect another living component in an ecosystem.

Antibiotic factors are non living components of an ecosystem. They are chemicals which affect living organisms.

The choice 2 is correct. The seeds spread out by mice is a biotic factor interacting with an antibiotic factor

Choice 3 is correct. The seeds in the soil grow into new trees are biotic factors interacting with an antibiotic factor
