Population Size and Density: Total size is generally expressed as the number of individuals in a population.
Population dispersion or spatial distribution
Age structure
Natality (birth rate)
Mortality (death rate)
I'd say heat, more specifically sunlight.
Why?
Because sun is the form of energy needed for plants to grow and live. Plants in turn are the form of energy needed for herbivores to live that later on turn out to be the form of energy needed by the carnivores. When these die, decomposers will be the ones to take advantage of the energy.
As you can see an ecosystem has already been formed: producers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers or decomposers.

Happy homework/ study/ exam!
Producers are always found at the lowest trophic level because they are the foundation of the foodweb. Which means that in the ocean you will find producers like algae and fungi because they dwell in the bottom as producers.
Answer:
D)clues about the past climate of Earth
Explanation:
The fossil record certainly has gaps, mostly because the conditions required to create fossils have been rare ever since life began on Earth. A very small percentage of animals that have lived and died ever became fossils. Thus, many pieces of the puzzle are missing; some will never be found.
