Aquarium ecosystem exploration

1. which biotic factors do you see in this photo?

2. which abiotic factors can you detect in this photo?

3. in what ways does one biotic factor interact with the abiotic factors?

4. pick one biotic factor and change it dramatically somehow. how will this change affect the aquarium?

5. pick one abiotic factor and change it dramatically somehow. how will this change affect the aquarium?

Lets understand that biotic factors are living and abiotic factors are non living. 

1. I see a fish and plants

2. The water

3. The biotic factor which is the fish interacts with the water which is abiotic by swimming and breathing it in with its gills. 

4.The plant which is a biotic factor could be taken out. This would affect the aquarium because the fish would have nothing to feed on.

5. One abiotic factor you could change would be the water. You could take it out and the biotic factors wouldn't survive without it.
