Detailed explanation-1: -Abiotic factors in aquatic ecosystems refer to any non-living component of an ecosystem. Some examples of abiotic factors in aquatic ecosystems include light, salinity, oxygen content, rate of water flow, depth, temperature, and acidity. Light refers to the availability of sunlight in a habitat.

Detailed explanation-2: -Abiotic factors include sunlight, temperature, moisture, wind or water currents, soil type, and nutrient availability.

Detailed explanation-3: -The main abiotic factors in freshwater are: water temperature. water velocity.

Detailed explanation-4: -What factors affect life in aquatic ecosystems? Aquatic organisms are affected primarily by the water’s depth, temperature, flow, and amount of dissolved nutrients.

Detailed explanation-5: -The most important abiotic factors include water, sunlight, oxygen, soil and temperature. Water (H2O) is a very important abiotic factor – it is often said that “water is life.” All living organisms need water.
