Correct answer: A). Root
The part of the word that can not be broken down is called root word. In the word claustrophobic ''phob'' is the root word. It can not be suffix as a suffix are added after the root word. It cannot be prefixed as it is added before the root word. Here the prefix would be ''claustro'' and suffix would be ''ic''. It cannot be affixed as it contains both suffix and prefix.
Hence, the correct answer would be option A.
The populations with the trophic levels that receive the least amount of the total energy from the grass would be Hognose snakes and owls.
<h3>Trophic Level</h3>
The higher we move up a trophic level, the lower the amount of energy transferred from the previous levels.
More precisely put, only about 10% of the total energy available at one trophic level is transferred to the next while the rest is lost as heat to the surrounding.
In this case, Hognose snakes and owls represent the two highest trophic levels in the ecosystem. Thus, their populations would receive the lowest amount of energy from the producer, the grass.

Unequal reproductive success - Accumulation of favorable traits over time. Unequal reproductive success. heritable traits best suited to the local environment are more likely to survive and reproduce. Accumulation of favorable traits over time.
Activation energy is the minimum quantity of energy that the reacting species must possess in order to undergo a specified reaction.
for example , striking a match on the side of a matchbox provides the activation energy, in the form of heat produced by friction.
