Interaction between Abiotic and Biotic Components All living organisms depend upon their environment for survival essentials: 1) food 2) shelter 3) breeding site. In turn the organism interacts with the environment in several ways. For example a plant uses the environment for the three purposes named above but in turn it also removes carbon dioxide and water from the air‚ it gets eaten by an animal or a parasite and it depends on the soil for its support. Therefore the plant is interacting

Four and a half billion years ago‚ the debris and dust left from the formation of the sun coalesced to form our home planet. 3.5 billion years ago‚ the first living organisms appeared on Earth. About 230 million years ago‚ Dinosaurs diverged from their Archosaurs ancestors during the middle to late Triassic period. For 160 million years they have dominated our planet. They are dubbed the most successful species to have lived on Earth. However‚ 65 million years ago‚ the most recent mass extinction
