:

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.

Answers

The circulatory and respiratory systems work together to circulate blood and oxygen throughout the body. Air moves in and out of the lungs through the trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles. Blood moves in and out of the lungs through the pulmonary arteries and veins that connect to the heart.

Digestive System gets nutrients (good) from food and hands it over to the blood and Circulatory System then carries those nutrients where they need to go.

The excretory system removes waste from the body. remove waste from the blood. The digestive system breaks down the food you eat into nutrients that provide energy and building materials for cells. The digestive and excretory sytems work together to process the food that you eat.
