The answer is A. Succession.

Succession is the process of change in the structure of species in some community or ecosystem. S<span>uccession is important because it leads to mature and stable communities. The purpose of succession is for an ecosystem to reach balance state right after it is formed or after it is disturbed by man or some disasters. It will increase biodiversity and help to prevent the desertification.</span>

Answer:

The bulging eyes of most frogs allow them to see in front, to the sides, and partially behind them. The eyes help push the food down its throat. Eyes positioned atop the head give frogs a field of vision of almost 180 degrees. This peripheral vision helps them spot predators and prey.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Terms matched with the right definitions.  

1. An organism that can make its own food – Autotroph

2. A symbiotic relationship between two organisms in which one species benefits and no effect is apparent to the other species – Commensalism.  

3. A cell that has a membrane-bound nucleus and/or organelles as its major characteristic -Eukaryote.  

4. The study of organisms that are too small to be seen with the naked eye - Microbiology.  

5.  A disease-causing organism - A germ pathogen.  

6. A one- or few-celled organism with chromosomes; may have characteristics of both animals and plants – Protist.


An autotroph is an organism that produces its own food from simple substances available in its environment. Autotrophs usually use inorganic chemical reactions or light energy in producing their food and are usually the producers in a food chain. Examples of autotrophs are plants and algae.


Commensalism is a type of relationship between organisms of two species where one organism benefits from the relationship and the other organism is not affected by it (neither benefits nor harmed).
