Biotic = living
Biotic factors are the living parts of an ecosystem. In a marine ecosystem, for example, the fish, kelp, sea turtles, coral, shrimp, sea anemones, and sea stars are all biotic factors.
Abiotic = nonliving
Abiotic factors are the nonliving parts of an ecosystem. In a marine ecosystem, water, salt, water currents, volcanos, sand, and rocks are all abiotic factors.
