Tapeworm Abiotic and Biotic Factors

Biome-
The Tapeworm lives in a moist and warm area infected with all sorts of bacteria. This biome is known as the small intestine after the organism ingests and becomes infected with the tapeworm. The small intestine is semipermiable meaning that it can absorb nutrients through the outerlayer of the small intestine. That is the reason why the tapeworm can survive inside of the small intestine due to nutrients taking its course throughout the digestive tract or the absorption of nutrients through the intestinal wall.

Abiotic Factors-

 * heat (tempurature)
 * size of small intestine (length/ width)
 * amount of oxygen level
 * type of organism
 * food it survives off of
 * feces
 * reproductive gamates
 * life time of the tapeworm

Biotic Factors-

 * species of organisms
 * organs
 * wandering organism looking for food
 * eggs (larval) released with bowl movement of organism

How do the abiotic factors influence the biotic factors that are present?
The non-living and living factors all effect eachother in some way. For example, without food going through the digestive tract, the tapeworm would not being able to survive. The Tapeworm feeds off of the food the host ingests for survival, and without that food, the tapeworm would not have the right biome for survival. Also, without the tapeworm releasing eggs in the organisms feces to repeat the life cycle, this would effect the life of the tapeworm regarding how the tapeworm is spread.
