Understanding Abiotic Factors and Their Impact on Communities

The video tutorial defines abiotic factors as non-living elements that impact ecosystems and communities. It explores various abiotic factors such as light intensity, temperature, moisture levels, soil pH, and pollution, and their effects on plant and animal life. The tutorial also discusses how changes in these factors can alter community dynamics, using examples like plant distribution and predator-prey relationships. The impact of pollution on abiotic factors and ecosystems is highlighted, emphasizing the interconnectedness of these elements.
