1. A) carnivore; third
The trophic levels are divided by the manner in which the energy is produced and consumed among the living organisms. The first trophic level is occupied by the autotrophs, which are the organisms that are able to produce their own food. The second trophic level is occupied by the organisms that feed upon the autotrophs, thus they are the herbivores, as well as the omnivores in partial sense. In this case we will have the ants at the second level. The third trophic level is reserved for the organisms that feed upon the organisms of the second trophic level, thus they are predators. In this case, we will have the wasp in the third trophic level.
2. B) consumption; 20
If there are herbivores and plants, the plants account for 1,000 kg in biomass, and the herbivores eat 200 kg of them, then the consumption is 20% of the total biomass. This kind of a scenario is able to support the whole population of herbivores without any problem, as there is much more food than they need. It will only become a problem if the population of herbivores starts to grow exponentially, and they start to consume all of the food and even require more, the population will collapse.
3. C) N20
The processes and nitrification and denitrification are very common, both in nature, and because of the human activity. The human activity has actually increased this process significantly. The main product of the nitrification-denitrification is the N2O. It is a vital product for the nitrogen cycle, and it is one that is increasing the atmospheric temperature, thus too much of it is not of best interest for anyone.
The long term effects of living poverty is that if there are children then they will be encouraged to go to school and make there life, and the life of there soon to come children, better. For generations, It come promote the children of the child to go to school and make money to get what they want.
Sorry that is so much, it is just my opinion.
The Congo and Niger rivers have interesting irregular courses, and instead of going just in a certain direction, they circle around big areas. This is due to the shape of the landscape, and also because of the types of rocks in the surrounding areas where these two rivers flow.
The shape of the landscape is crucial in the course of a river, since every river is moving through the lowest parts where there isn't obstacles, so these rivers have followed that pattern and it turned out to give them irregular course. Also, the types of rocks on their way are very important, so these rivers managed to get through the sediment rocks as they are easy to erode, but haven't been able to break through the igneous rocks that are much harder.
