The right answer is D.

Intermolecular forces lead to the assembly of microscopic systems. They are responsible for the cohesion of matter in most macroscopic phases. These are weak forces compared to covalent bond strengths. They do not modify the nature of the molecular species and only influence their mode of assembly. The most well-known intermolecular bonds are the Van der Waals bond and the hydrogen bond.

The greater the intermolecular forces, the more the aspect of the element will tend to be more condensed (gas <liquid <solid).

Which keystone species feed on other animals and prevent them from damaging the ecosystem?
Naddika [18.5K]

D.  Predators

Predators keep populations of other species in check.  This was pretty clearly demonstrated in Yellowstone National Park after the wolves were eradicated there.  The deer populations increased to the point that the aspen trees nearly disappeared due to the saplings' being eaten by deer.  Since the reintroduction of wolves to the park, the aspen trees have begun to flourish once again.
