Which abiotic factor is considered ecologically the most important, affecting enzyme kinetics and metabolic rate?

A Light
B Soil pH
C Temperature
D Wind speed

Correct answer: C. Temperature

Explanation: Temperature is regarded as the single most important abiotic factor because it directly affects enzyme activity and the metabolic rate of organisms.

Concept context

How organisms interact with abiotic factors and respond to stress, plus population attributes, growth models, and interspecific interactions such as predation, competition, and mutualism.
