The answer is C. nitrogen.

Plants are main producers in ecosystems so, primary productivity of ecosystems depends on them. Carbon is necessary for plants, but it is widely present in plants. On the other hand, calcium and sodium are not as essential. However, nitrogen is important for plants because it is necessary to make proteins. Proteins take part in many different processes such as photosynthesis (this is actually primary productivity). But, nitrogen is not available to plants, they cannot absorb it simply from the air but rely on some symbiotic bacteria which are able to.

Why are human populations not limited by the carrying capacity of their ecosystems?
exis [7]

Answer:

humans use their knowledge to locate resources.

Explanation:

The carrying capacity can be defined as the maximum number of individuals in a population of a species that an ecosystem or region can support on the basis of availability of water, food, habitat and other needs necessary for survival. Sometimes, the population of the species increases exponentially exceeding the carrying capacity of an ecosystem when the resources available are surplus.  

The human populations are not limited by the carrying capacity of their ecosystem this is because of the fact human beings possess special intellectual and thinking abilities which make them capable of availing themselves resources. They posses knowledge which allows them to search, and find resources even from the earth extreme locations not suitable for survival.
