Answer:
d. low rates of offspring survival
Explanation:
"Big-bang" reproduction also called semelparity is reproductive strategy in which only one single reproductive event happens during the lifetime of an organism. Usually after that reproduction, death of parents occur. This happens because "parents" put all available resources into maximizing reproduction.

Answer:
soil; rice
Explanation:
Bacillus cereus is naturally found in the soil. B. cereus is known to contaminate rice, which, if undercooked and ingested, can lead to gastroenteritis. In this example, the reservoir for B. cereus is the soil, and the source of infection is the rice.
A reservoir refers to the breeding ground or natural habitat of micro living organisms such as bacterias, fungi, worms, etc. Thus, a reservoir hosts or harbours pathogens and usually serves as a source of infection to other living organisms.
On the other hand, a source of infection refers to a contaminated material from which a disease can be acquired by another living organism.
During photosynthesis, carbohydrates are produced.
