Detailed explanation-1: -Biotic factors include other living things, so the deer receives protection and vigilance from any other deer it chooses to be around. It may mate with other deer. It will consume other plants and plants are living.
Detailed explanation-2: -Dead organisms are not abiotic. Some people think that if an organism is no longer alive, it cannot be considered biotic. However, if something used to be alive, or was part of a living organism (such as a bone, or hair), it is still considered biotic.
Detailed explanation-3: -A biotic factor is a living organism that shapes its environment. In a freshwater ecosystem, examples might include aquatic plants, fish, amphibians, and algae. Biotic and abiotic factors work together to create a unique ecosystem.
