Answer:

The bugs evolved beak lengths that were adapted to their host plant.

Explanation:

This is an interesting case of evolution in which bugs evolved (changed) quickly over a few generations. In less than 50 years the bugs evolved beak lengths to match the size of the new host plant’s seed pods. The bugs were not used to live out of that plant but they started feeding on it and then they changed some of their characteristics.

mafiozo [28]
The answer is a) in biogeochemical cycles, nutrients are not synthesized anew but are recycled in the <span>biosphere.

Biogeochemical cycles are pathways by which chemical substances move through biosphere and geosphere (lithosphere), as well as atmosphere and hydrosphere. In these cycles nutrients are recycled, they are not lost. Let's take for example a carbon cycle:
</span>

<span>:- Carbon is released into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide from respiration.</span>

<span>- Producers (plants) absorb carbon dioxide and make carbohydrates in photosynthesis.</span>

<span>- Consumers (animals) eat producers and intake carbohydrates.</span>

<span>- After the death of both producers and consumers, decomposers (such as Actinobacteria, or other bacteria or fungi) eat that dead organisms and carbon are released into the environment.</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>So, carbon is not synthesized anew, but it is recycled.</span>
