Chemoautotrophs made their food by themselves using the energy from the sun. This means that an ecosystem that depends on chemoautotrophs for food is DEPENDENT ON SUNLIGHT FOR FOOD AND SURVIVAL. This is because the chemoautotrophic organisms are the primary producers in that ecosystem.
D. Lack of sunlight
Explanation:
In a forest, an example of a limiting factor is that lack of sunlight.
Limiting factors in an ecosystems are the that factors usually made up of environment resources that affects the growth and abundance of organisms in an ecosystem.
- Examples are sunlight, water, nutrient, air etc
- In a forest, sunlight is one of the limiting factors.
- Forest vegetation are stratified.
- The broad leaved canopy trees dominates and receives the bulk of the sunlight.
- The undergrowth beneath competes for the little sunlight that reaches below for their own use.
- Distributions of sunlight in an ecosystem affects the way in which vegetation are dispersed.
