Question 5 (2 points) Which of the following is a primary producer? an oak tree O a puffball mushroom a mockingbird a soil bacte
Burka [1]

The correct answer is A. An oak tree

Explanation:

The term "primary producer" is used to describe organisms that can produce their own energy without feeding on others, this includes plants and algae that produce food and energy through photosynthesis using light and other inorganic compounds. Additionally, the primary producers can be identified because in ecosystems they are always on the first level and they are eaten by others.

According to this, the one that is a primary producer is an oak tree because this is a type of plant and therefore can produce its food through photosynthesis different to others that need to feed on other organisms to obtain energy.

Why is the lithosphere the most important component of our environment.
Nitella [24]

The lithosphere is the outermost sphere of the solid Earth, consisting of the crust and the upper part of the mantle. The lithosphere is largely important because it is the area that the biosphere (the living things on earth) inhabit and live upon.

If it weren't for the tectonic plates of the lithosphere there would be no change on Earth. Tectonic plates shift due to convection currents lower down in the mantle, and this can cause the formation of mountains, the eruption of volcanoes, and earthquakes. While this can be devastating in the short-run, long term benefits are the formation of new plant life, the creation of new habitats and encouraging adaptation.  

It is also the source of almost all of our resources, and is rich in elements like iron, aluminium, calcium, copper and magnesium, which humans have used for tools and machinery for millennia.  

When the biosphere interacts with the lithosphere, organic compounds can become buried in the crust, and dug up as oil, coal or natural gas that we can use for fuels.  

In combination with the atmosphere and hydrosphere (water), it provides a stable source of nutrients for botanical life, which produce glucose that higher organisms use for sustenance.
