Answer
A
plant root structures and oxygen content
B
soil temperature and water content
C
nitrogen content and insect activity
D
insect activity and plant root structures

Abiotic factors are nonliving parts of an environment. Soil temperature and water content are both nonliving conditions that affect bacteria living in soil. Plant roots and insects are living organisms, so choices that include them are not made up only of abiotic factors.
