Explanation

Plants and animals that live on land are known as terrestrial organisms, and their surroundings are called terrestrial habitats. Common examples include forests, grasslands, deserts, and mountain regions.

  • Aquatic habitats refer to environments where plants and animals live in water, such as ponds, lakes, rivers, and oceans.
  • Biotic components represent all living organisms within an ecosystem, including both terrestrial and aquatic life.
  • Abiotic components are the non-living parts of an environment, such as soil, rocks, air, water, and sunlight.

While plants and animals are biotic, the specific term used to categorize those that live on land is terrestrial.
