<u>Answer:</u>

Movement of matter passes through the ecosystem in the form of cycle, web, chain etc., between the living and non-living things. The base is the energy derived from sun. They involve all living organisms, air, water, soil etc. Matter never gets wasted instead utilized.

Matter is recycled in the ecosystem but energy is not. Energy is transferred from one organism to another approximately by 10% where balance of 90% is lost in the form of energy. The higher the levels in the food chain more exhaustion of energy due to work.

Sexual reproduction produces genetically different offsprings which do possess variations, hence better chance to survive in the environment.

Option C

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Sexual reproduction is the process of reproduction where there's a fusion of gametes from a male and female of the same species, resulting in a zygote and eventually an offspring. Sexual reproduction is very advanced type of reproduction which is very expensive for an organism. Much of the energy of the organism is spent to produce gametes and other necessary processes for reproduction.

Gametes of the sexual reproduction is produced mainly by means of meiotic cell division. This involves crossing over and chaismata formation which helps in genetic variations in the offspring. These variations help the species to survive unknown changes in environment, and helps to adapt quickly lessening the chances of extinction. So sexual reproduction has modified various times in different groups of species.

It plays a key role in ecology and is thought to have driven the evolution of much of the diversity currently in existence today.
