| What is a community together with its nonliving environment known as? | ecosystem |
| What type of organisms are part of a biotic environment? | Living organisms, or organisms that have once lived. |
| Which part of an environment contains both biotic and abiotic parts? | ecosystem |
| What are the three components of a biosphere? | population, community, and ecosystem |
| What type of bacteria live in extreme environments such as salt water, acids, or hot temperatures? | Archaea |
