Technically, the definition is that autotrophs obtain carbon from inorganic sources like carbon dioxide (CO2) while heterotrophs get their reduced carbon from other organisms. Autotrophs are usually plants; they are also called "self feeders" or "primary producers".
Answer:
C) The continents were once connected.
Explanation:
All the continents were once part of the super-continent called Pangaea. Continental drift split it into fragments and led to the formation of the present-day continents. Since all the continents were connected, some of the cacti native to tropical western Africa must have been carried to present-day America.
The cacti populations present in America and tropical western Africa accumulated genetic variations to get adapted to the prevailing environmental conditions. Separation of continents by continental drift led to their geographical isolation and prevented any interbreeding between the populations. Over generations, the cacti present in two continents evolved into separate species.
<span>Typically the skin will be cool and dry, except in cases of immersion in fluids, with mild hypothermia. Exposed skin may begin to turn purple and puffy once core body temperature falls below 90 degrees Fahrenheit. The patient will typically shiver if they have mild hypothermia only ceasing to do so after their core body temperature has fallen below 93 degrees Fahrenheit.</span>
What is waste water treatment ?
“The major aim of wastewater treatment is to remove as much of the suspended solids as possible before the remaining water, called effluent, is discharged back to the environment.”

The answer is A. detritus.
Detritus typically includes the bodies or fragments of bodies of dead organisms, and fecal material. Detritus typically hosts communities of microorganisms that colonize and decompose (i.e. remineralize) it. In terrestrial ecosystems it is present as leaf litter and other organic matter that is intermixed with soil, which is denominated "soil organic matter".
