The biotic factors can be defined as those living elements of an ecosystem that affects the other members of the ecosystem and also shapes it. The examples include animals and plants. The abiotic factors can be defined as those elements which are non-living and have effect on the other components of the ecosystem. The examples include water, air, soil etc.

A rabbit having long ears in order to disperse heat is adapting to the abiotic factor, i.e. the heat.

The spines of cactus are an adaptation to another abiotic factor, water.

The bright red color of the petunia is to attract the hummingbirds for pollination. They are adapting to the biotic factor (hummingbird).

The blending ability of stick-bugs to hide in the trees is an adaptation to the biotic factor (predators).

The diving ability of the moth is an adaptation to the biotic factor bat, in order to escape predation.

The adaptation of the lizard to sun itself on the rock in order to stay warm is in response to an abiotic factor (heat).

The correct answer is

1. A rabbit living in  a desert has long ears  to disperse heat- abiotic factor.

2. A moth immediately  dives to the ground  when it hears a bat- biotic factor.

3. A lizard stays warm  by sunning itself  on a rock- abiotic factor.

4. A cactus has spines  instead of leaves  to help conserve water- abiotic factors.

5. A petunia is  bright red to  attract hummingbirds- biotic factor.

6. A stick-bug blends in  with trees to hide  from predators- biotic factor.

Explanation:-

The environment includes both abiotic and biotic factors which can affect the ecosystem. Living elements like plants and animals which affect ecosystem are known as biotic factors while the non-living elements which include air, water, temperature are called abiotic factors.

In the given question the options affected by the biotic factors due to bat, due to hummingbirds and due to predators.

Options affected by the abiotic factors due to heat and due to water.
