It is because these slides have sharp edges and must be carefully handled. It can cause cut in the fingers and as these slides are comprised of infectious substances, it can affect other individuals, causing various types of diseases.
Thus, they must not be disposed of here and there, rather they should be disposed of according to the teacher's instruction.
Hence, the correct answer is option (C).
Essential services, such as water purification, nutrient cycling, and plant pollination are all examples of earth's Ecosystem services.

The ecosystem with the help of its different components performs water filtration, recycling of the nutrients, pollination, seed dispersal etc. These all services provided by the ecosystem comes under the category of ecosystem services.
Answer:
D. In an ocean heated by volcanic activity
Explanation:
Most of Earth was covered in water, early organisms weren't evolved enough to walk on land at the time. There are some organisms that feed off of volcanic activity and use it as an energy resource and would adapt to the heat.
<em>"Hot spots create volcanoes on the seafloor. If these volcanoes rise above sea level to become islands, and if they occur in tropical waters, coral reefs will form on them. Since the volcanoes are cones, the reef forms in a circle around the volcano."</em>

<em>"Discovered only in 1977, hydrothermal vents are home to dozens of previously unknown species. Huge red-tipped tube worms, ghostly fish, strange shrimp with eyes on their backs and other unique species thrive in these extreme deep ocean ecosystems found near undersea volcanic chains."</em>
