Answer:

The correct option is A. Algae

Explanation:

Algae is the best possible answer because the process of photosynthesis can be carried out only by plants, algae and cyanobacteria.  Hence, option A is correct. These organisms are called autotrophs as they are capable of making their own food.

Other organisms like paramecium, arthropods and fungi are not capable of photosynthesis. These organisms like arthropods are called heterotrophs. They do not make their own food and feed on other organisms for food.

Irina-Kira [14]
The example of a biotic factor is the shrimp population in a bay. Biotic factors are living factors that affect organisms in an ecosystem. The biotic factors includes the producers or autotrophs, consumers or heterotrophs, and decomposer. Abiotic factors on the other hand are the non-living factors that influence an ecosystem; they include, sunlight, soil, humidity, etc

Animals lose heat through the surface areas of their skin. A small animal, such as a mouse, uses a much larger proportion of its
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Because of the difference in surface area to volume ratio

Explanation:

Surface are to volume ratio is the area of an object that is exposed to the external environment (surface area), compared to the amount within an object (volume).

Therefore an elephant has a lower surface area to volume ratio than a mouse.

The smaller an object is the greater its surface area to volume ratio.

Small animals have much more surface area per mass than large animals. With so much surface area, they lose heat very quickly. So, a mouse, with a lot of surface area per mass, must spend a lot more energy to stay warm than a large animal.
