How do the nonliving parts of earth's systems provide the basic materials to support life?

The nonliving components or our environments or habitats provide all the elements to the ecosystem to sustain and produce life forms. This is why organisms can exist and increase their number.

Explanation:

First of all, if we look into the evolutionary theories we will find something, there were times in which there were no life forms on the earth, and the earth already existed. Thus, earth conditions and the combination of coincidences formed life. So, if earth had not provided the perfect conditions for life to exist we would have never thought about this. That is the reason why the answer above is correct. Because the nonliving components of the ecosystem provide us everything to live.
