Biotic and Abiotic Features of Lakes

Biotic features are features of or relating to the organisms of the lake. They include all the species near and around the lake, though specific examples would depend on where the lake was located around the world.

Abiotic features are any features of a lake that are not related to organisms. They could include the water temperature, the water's turbidity, the soil type of the lake, and the pH levels of the lake.
