skin hides. That is horrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!They are endangered species.

How Biotic & Abiotic things Depend on each Other

Biotic and Abiotic things depend on each other for homes and food and water. For Example: Carnivores depend on herbivores and omnivores for food. Herbivores eat plants and water for food. And water is abiotic cause it is not living. And plants need soil for the roots to go through….. And as you know soil is abiotic.
