5) Which of the following is an abiotic facto a) The kind of trees b) The number of insects c) The average temperature d) The mosses and algae

The correct answer is c) The average temperature.Abiotic factors are non-living components of an ecosystem that can influence the living organisms within it. These factors include physical and chemical elements such as temperature, light, water, soil, and air. In this case, the average temperature is an abiotic factor because it is a non-living component that can affect the growth and survival of plants and animals in an ecosystem.
