Most Aquatic Organism Can Be Killed If The PH Changes

The document summarizes various abiotic factors that affect organisms and their habitats. It discusses how pH, temperature, light intensity, humidity, microclimate, topography, altitude, gradient, and aspect can influence availability of resources, physiological activities, growth, distribution, and survival of plants and animals. Examples are provided to illustrate each factor's specific effects. Symbiotic relationships like mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism are also defined based on how the interacting organisms are impacted.
