Solution

The correct option is D Temperature
Abiotic factors are the non-living physical and chemical components of an ecosystem. Temperature, pH, light, water and soil are the major abiotic factors that affect living organisms and the functioning of ecosystems. Lion, Teak tree and microbes are living organisms in a terrestrial ecosystem and are hence, examples of biotic components of the ecosystem.
