Population and community ecology will explore many of the interactions between organisms. ]]> 2016-08-22 00:04:47 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenrose/aq3enxaknlbp/wish/119070108 Abiotic Components imogenrose https://padlet.com/imogenrose/aq3enxaknlbp/wish/119070253 The nonliving, chemical, and physical components. Some important abiotic factors include temperature, water, salinity, sunlight, and soil. Temperature and precipitation are the two most important abiotic factors in determining the distributions of biomes. ]]> 2016-08-22 00:06:04 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenrose/aq3enxaknlbp/wish/119070253 Temperature jospina https://padlet.com/imogenrose/aq3enxaknlbp/wish/119204443 Cells may rupture, more energy may be required or organisms may not be able to function if they reach a certain temperature.
