Answer:it obtains it energy by feeding on other organisms

Explanation:animals and plants needs energy to carry out their normal functions such as growth.some are autotrophs ,others are heterotrophs.

Autotrophs can make their own food through photosynthesis.that is they use energy from the environment and inorganic nutrients to synthesis their food.autotrophs are majorly green plants,algae and cyanobacteria.

Chemoautotrophs are autotrophs which get their energy from chemical reactions in order to produce their food.example is bacteria

Heterotrophs get their energy by feeding on other organisms and digesting them .they depend on autotrophs directly or indirectly for their source of energy.for example,a deer feeds on green plants ,which are autotrophs.in this case,the deer is said to be a herbivore

Scientists have noted a decline in the number of all mushroom species dating back to the early 1900s. In addition, annual crops
zalisa [80]

The correct answer should be D.) Declines in poisonous, non-edible mushroom species in cool climates. Although question B does provide evidence that Global warming could be the cause of the declines, it still doesn't disprove the theory that overharvesting could be the cause as well. Question C could be caused by a number of things, such as deforestation, a local change in climate, removal of agricultural pests, ect. Question A supports the hypothesis that overharvesting is the cause of the decline, instead of disproving it. Hope this helped!
