Bacteria is biotic or abiotic?
The water cycle is abiotic or biotic?

Suitable climate for banana growth is warm moist weather without strong winds throughout the year. The major constraints for banana production are largely dominated by biotic and abiotic stresses. Though research on biotic stresses in banana has drawn sufficient attention worldwide, abiotic stresses are not.

The sunflower is biotic because it demonstrates all six characteristics, not just environmental response. The ice cube is abiotic because it does not have any other characteristics of living organisms.

Bacteria are biotic. They are living organisms, regardless of their size.
