Some abiotic factors are sunlight, dirt, and water. Plants need all 3 of these abiotic factors in order for the plant to survive. Some biotic factors is a nitrogen-fixing bacteria. This type of bacteria plays a necessary role for photosynthesis because without this the plants would never be able to grow. Another biotic factor are bees. Without bees to spread pollen to each plant the plants would not be able to repopulate at their normal speed.
Our plants engaged in competition because their are in the same environment with the same niche. The plants are competing for soil, sunlight, and water. The plants that are in the completion is any plant in their environment with the same niche.
The winners is the plant that survives and the loser is the plant that dies. Their is usually never a clear line between winning and losing when it comes to this. You never really know because they both lose something during their competition state.
Other interaction that plants go through is mutation. The plant goes through mutation when the nitrogen-fixing bacteria helps the plant during photosynthesis stage.
The evidence that a succession is occurring in the story of the seed project is true. Succession is occurring because we started out by pulling out all the plants that were their last year making it just a pill of dirt. Now we are putting new plants in so in the end it will return to its original state. This is secondary succession because instead of starting with rocks we have dirt.
