$1$. Temperature: It is the most ecologically relevant environmental factor,affecting the kinetics of enzymes and basal metabolism of organisms.
$2$. Water: It is essential for life,and the productivity and distribution of plants are heavily dependent on water availability.
$3$. Light: Since plants produce food through photosynthesis,light is crucial for their growth. Many animals also use light cues for foraging,reproductive,and migratory activities.
