C. A community at a particular site has only one stable equilibrium
Explanation:
A community in Clement's view is like a superorganism. All the species together function as parts of a whole and removing one or more species hinders the function of that superorganism. In this view, it makes sense that when a community is harmed, like when a forest is cut, the "superorganism" will regenerate itself and there is but one possible outcome. The original stable community (the climax community) is the only possible stable result.
The process of recording all the daily activities helps the patient to create conscience of what he does and how these actions could potentially develop situations where the, in this case, drinking problem could come back. After a time doing it, the person creates this conscience without the need of recording it, and the therapist highlights this fact by allowing the patient to stop recording his daily activities.
Bacteria that change nitrogen gas from the atmosphere into solid nitrogen usable by plants are called nitrogen-fixing bacteria. These bacteria are found both in the soil and in symbiotic relationships with plants.
