:

D. Both competition and environmental filtering shape community structure.

Explanation:

Based on competition theory,  two  organisms occupying the same ecological niche can only coexist   provided  there is spatial or conditioning niche partitioning.This  prevent  competitive exclusion , ensuring survival of the two species in their niche. Since the two species developed greater variability in (over-dispersed traits)  to resist the selection  pressure,(competition).Many overdisperesed traits is present in the communities.

  However environmental filtering, is concerned with selection of species with  natural ability or triats to survive in a given communities,Thus if two species of organism  meet the same ecologocal requirements in a community, environmental filtering, fitters them and ensure their survival ahead of others who do not meet the requirements, and could not survive.

Thus the simultaneous operation of theses  two opposing selection pressures, structured communities ensuring coexistence and favoured ability of organism to survive.

How does a tree use Cellular Respiration to store carbon?
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

In-spiration Respiration in trees releases energy stored in carbon compounds through a controlled process. Aerobic respiration uses O2 to oxidize organic compounds into CO2 and H2O. Energy released is stored within living cells as ATP, ETM, and a proton bank which are easily used for cell work.

Fynjy0 [20]

For the generalized scheme of Alternation of generations (see p. 120), plants have two forms based on a genetic complement that are the Sporophytes (2N diploid) and Gametophyte (N haploid). The processes connecting the two stages are gametangia producing haploid spores and zygote cell growth producing haploid gametophyte. Group of answer choices
