Abiotic factors of a particular biome, be it a tropical rainforest or a grassland, affects what grows there and what can and cannot thrive there. A particular soil type could be ideal for several species of plants but not for others. Too much precipitation favors some plants like trees, but it does not favor others like dryland grasses. Too much or too little sunlight will also affect what grows where. Then we have the animals. The animals are only secondary to a particular biome, as they are there because their kind of food grows there. You won't find monkeys in a grassland because they have no ideal food source there for them. And, you won't find plains bison in a rainforest because grass does not thrive in a rainforest. Predators are the tertiary portion of a biome: a leopard thrives in a rainforest because of protective cover and he has monkeys and dik diks to hunt and eat. A wolf thrives in a grassland because of his capability of running for long distances across the open plains (he won't be able to do this in a rainforest), and his ability to chase wild game like pronghorn and bison.
