Answer:
1. Atmosphere and ecosystem
2. Carbon/CO2 is absorbed by the plants and then released as oxygen.
3. Carbon is used in the cellular respiration process to make ATP.
4. Decomposers break down dead material and release CO2 in that process into the atmosphere for plants to use that carbon for photosynthesis again.
The correct answer is answer choice A, 'In predation the predator usually kills its prey, whereas in parasitism the parasite does not usually kill its host'. While parasites can occasionally kill their hosts, it is more beneficial for the parasite to keep its host alive so that it can continue surviving off of the nutrients it gathers. Answer choice B is incorrect because the prey in predator-prey relationships and the host in parasitism do not benefit. Answer choice C is incorrect because the host does not benefit in parasitism, and is often harmed by the parasite. Answer choice D is incorrect because a predator usually kills its prey, while a parasite usually does not kill its host.
Hope this helps!
