What are biomes?
A
An ecosystem with organisms that have evolved within that certain region based on its abioitic and biotic factors
B
An ecosystem with numerous species that are identical and non-identical
C
An ecosystem with primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers in a certain region
D
An ecosystem with organisms that have adapted to numerous climates across the world
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A biome is a group of similar ecosystems with the same general abiotic factors and primary producers. This can easily be seen with a community of plants and animals. Remember that a community is all of the populations of different species that live in the same area and interact with one another.

Detailed explanation-2: -Different plants will attract different animals (herbivores) to eat these plants. These animals, in turn, will attract different (carnivores) animals to eat the herbivores. So it is the abiotic factors that determine the biotic factors of an ecosystem, and together these define the biome.

Detailed explanation-3: -Biomes. A biome is an area classified according to the species that live in that location. Temperature range, soil type, and the amount of light and water are unique to a particular place and form the niches for specific species allowing scientists to define the biome.

Detailed explanation-4: -Description. Biotic and abiotic factors are what make up ecosystems. Biotic factors are living things within an ecosystem; such as plants, animals, and bacteria, while abiotic are non-living components; such as water, soil and atmosphere. The way these components interact is critical in an ecosystem.

Detailed explanation-5: -Biotic factors pertain to living organisms and their relationships. Abiotic factors are the non-living components of the ecosystem, including sunlight, water, temperature, wind, and nutrients. Ecologists use biotic and abiotic factors to predict population changes and ecological events.
