The biotic and abiotic components work together as a system and are linked with nutrition cycles and __________________.

The correct answer is: Energy flow

• Biotic and abiotic components are the living and non-living components of an ecosystem, respectively
• The abiotic components like water, minerals, light are all essential for the growth of a living organism
• The biotic organism utilizes these abiotic factors and after its life, the dead organic molecules of these gets released into the environment and becomes abiotic component. This component is taken up by plants for its growth, which is later consumed by animals and the cycle continues. This constitute the nutrition cycle and results in energy flow.
