Answer:

The correct answer is because the molecular structure.

Explanation:

The difficulty of ammonia and methane to be represented on paper is due to the molecular structure. These compounds have a three-dimensional projection with defined angles. Ammonia presents angles of 109.5º between the atom of Nitrogen and those of Oxygen. The ammonia presents 107.8º between the oxygen atoms.

In the methane molecule, there is 109.5º between the hydrogen molecules and the carbon atom. This results in the need for a 3D representation of the molecule.

Pls help me. Show proof on why it’s that answer.

The answer is “the sustainability of the ecosystem” because if the ecosystem isn’t sustainable enough for many different organisms to live in it then the biological diversity of the ecosystem will decrease.
