A disease can be biotic or abiotic. If it is a bacteria it is biotic, but if it is a virus it is always abiotic, because viruses are not considered living because they cannot reproduce on there own, do not consume energy or give off waist.

∙ 12y agoNo, diseases are not considered abiotic. Diseases are caused by pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites that are living organisms. Abiotic factors are non-living factors in the environment that can influence living organisms, but they do not directly cause diseases.

∙ 15y agoRight now scientists say that viruses contain a few characteristics of living life, but also don't fufil all characteristics of living life. Right now viruses are considered abiotic.
Viruses show living characteristics in some cases while in other cases they do not. For example, viruses can multiply only inside another living cell and not when free in nature. Because of its parasitic like existence, viruses are considered as living but the characteristics of viruses outside a living cell put it as non-living. As of now, viruses are considered as a link between the biotic and abiotic world.

∙ 14y agoCold viruses are abiotic as they lack proper cell structure. Another way of looking at it is that antibiotics can't treat cold viruses as antibiotics kill microorganisms such as bacteria.

∙ 9y agoA virus is non-living, so it could be considered to be abiotic.

The population of a species diminishes due to both abiotic and biotic factors. Abiotic factors like natural disasters, climate change, and habitat destruction can directly impact a population. Biotic factors, such as predation, competition for resources, and diseases, can also contribute to population declines.
its a abiotic because its not a living thing
Biotic factors for weasels include prey availability, competition with other predators, and diseases. Abiotic factors include climate, temperature, and habitat availability. These factors can influence the population size, behavior, and distribution of weasels in their environment.

Biotic factor is not a disease itself; it is the things that can get diseases. This includes animals, plants, and humans.

Abiotic factors that can limit growth in populations include temperature, water availability, soil nutrients, pH levels, and sunlight. These factors can impact the ability of organisms to survive, reproduce, and thrive in a given environment.
