It is an essential element for plant life, but when there is too much of it in water, it can speed up eutrophication (a reduction in dissolved oxygen in water bodies caused by an increase of mineral and organic nutrients) of rivers and lakes. Soil erosion is a major contributor of phosphorus to streams.
The predators will feed on the prey lowering their birthrates, but while feeding on the prey, the predators' growth rate will lower since there is less prey to feed on.
I think the answer in this is c because it shows how the scientist worked in feilds
The answer is (D). Creating more fossil fuels.
Fossil fuels are formed by the compression of the dead matter of plants and animals within the crust of the Earth. The plants and animals that died due to some calamity millions of years ago got covered by the rocks and soil. The internal heat of the Earth and the pressure due to the weight of the rocks turned them into thick dark crude oil. This process is natural and time consuming. It is impossible to recreate this process by artificial means on a large scale to make more solid fuels.
Interestingly, mining of extra-terrestrial planets, moons and asteroids is an ongoing research and the means to do it are being prototypes in the research laboratories of NASA and other space organisations.
