The interactions of abiotic and biotic factors result in conditions that are suitable for some organisms but not for others?

Abiotic factors such as temperature, sunlight, water, and soil composition influence the physical environment, while biotic factors encompass interactions among living organisms, including competition and predation. Together, these factors create specific ecological niches that can support certain species while making survival difficult for others. For example, a plant species may thrive in a moist, shaded habitat, while another may require full sunlight and dry conditions. This interplay determines biodiversity and species distribution within ecosystems.
