Answer:
A. Less CO2 emitted from transportation
Explanation:
The other answer options don't make as much sense, since it would basically be from farm to table, answers B and D don't make sense. As for C, farmers would probably end up making more and if not the same, because they'd be able to directly sell a higher percentage of their yieldings from the crop because little to no transportation is required (less bruised or damaged goods) and the store or supermarket they sell it in wouldn't be taking a percentage of their earnings.
I'd say B, anyone disagree??
Yes, a plant would as long as a living creature is in the area to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide. It is not totally necessary for other plants to be in the immediate vicinity but is necessary for all living things to live. As mentioned before carbon dioxide and oxygen must be exchanged. (The more the merrier(do not add this)).<span />
