Well as you move along a food chain, energy is lost due to excrement, growth, respiration, etc. So having a really long food chain would mean very few nutrients from the original plant would actually make it to the apex predator. From that knowledge, C looks like the answer. Nutrients definitely aren't lost from an ecosystem, and I don't see how recycling nutrients or energy would be a limiting factor on the length of a food chain, since it can happen at any point on it

What was the Court’s decision in United States v. Nixon (1974) and how did the decision uphold the idea that even the President
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

The Supreme Court decided that the President was required to turn over tape recordings and other materials that had been subpoenaed by special prosecutor Leon Jaworski.

In trying to withhold some materials related to the Watergate investigation, Nixon's lawyer had argued that the President of the United States "is not subject to the processes of any court in the land except the court of impeachment." The Supreme Court disagreed, in unanimous fashion. They held that the President could not use executive privilege as an excuse for hiding wrongdoing or avoiding prosecution. In an interview some years after his resignation, Nixon still held to his view, claiming that when the President does something, "that means that it is not illegal." He felt that being in the position of President put him above the law. But the Supreme Court had firmly disagreed. They rejected the idea of "absolute, unqualified Presidential privilege of immunity from judicial process under all circumstances." Executive privilege can only protect matters of military or diplomatic confidentiality
