Which of the following statements about biotic and abiotic components is FALSE?
hard Q9 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1: Recall characteristics of abiotic and biotic components
Abiotic components are non-living and cannot reproduce. Biotic components are living and can reproduce.Step 2: Analyze each statement
Statements about abiotic components including temperature and minerals, and biotic components including fungi and bacteria are true. Interaction maintaining ecosystem balance is also true. Only the statement about abiotic components reproducing is false.Step 3: Explain why other options are correct
Temperature and minerals are abiotic; fungi and bacteria are living organisms; ecosystem balance depends on biotic-abiotic interactions.Final Answer:
Abiotic components can reproduce to increase their population → Option BQuick Check:
Abiotic reproduction = Not possible ✅
Quick Trick: Abiotic components do not reproduce or grow.
Common Mistakes:
- Assuming abiotic factors can reproduce like living organisms.
