Answer: a.autotrophs

Explanation:

Autotrophs and heterotrophs are in equilibrium in the biosphere: Autotrophs capture sunlight to form ATP and NADPH, molecules they use to produce organic compounds from CO2 and H2O and release O2 into the atmosphere. Heterotopic beings, in turn, consume the organic compounds produced by autotrophic beings to obtain energy by oxidizing these compounds using atmospheric O2 and releasing CO2 into the environment. CO2 is used again by autotrophs, closing the cycle.

Why do flowers contain more stamen than pistils
jeka94
In certain flowering plants, the flower contain more stamen than pistil to increase chances of pollination. The stamen is the male reproductive part of a flower and the pistil is the female reproductive part of the flower. More stamen means more pollen. By producing more stamen and therefore more pollen, the chances of pollen coming into contact with the pistil are much higher especially since pollination depends on either wind or insects. However, not all flowering plants have this arrangement.
