Abiotic Factors and Their Effect on Communities

The video discusses abiotic factors, which are nonliving elements that affect ecosystems and communities. It explains how factors like light, temperature, moisture, soil pH, wind, oxygen, and carbon dioxide influence plant and animal life. The impact of pollution on these factors is also covered, highlighting its effects on ecosystems. Examples from different environments, such as rainforests and deserts, illustrate how abiotic factors shape plant distribution. The video concludes by examining how changes in abiotic factors can alter community dynamics.
