There is a huge difference between bioitic and abiotic. Biotic means living (bio) and abiotic, as stated by ayl0124, is the opposite, meaning nonliving. Biotic factors are part of the ecosystem. Some of these include plants and bacteria. Abiotic factors are things like air and soil. Both have an effect on the other. The best way to explain this the way the soil affects the way a plant grows. If the soil is not good, the plant will either not grow or not grow well.
