Final answer:

Photosynthesis in cactus plants occurs in the stem to reduce water loss. Birds possess light bones with air cavities for flight. Biotic components of the environment encompass green plants, animals, and decomposers.


Explanation:

Photosynthesis in a cactus plant occurs in the stem, not the leaves. This adaptation helps reduce water loss in arid environments. Animals like birds have light bones with air cavities to aid in flight and reduce weight. Biotic components of the environment include green plants, animals, and decomposers as they are living organisms that interact within ecosystems.
