B. All organisms that cannot synthesize their food by means of photosynthesis or chemosynthesis are heterotrophic.
Explanation:
There are three ways for a plant to obtain their food, photosynthesis, chemosynthesis, and heterotrophic. Photosynthesis is when the plant makes it's own food. If it can not get it's food from chemosynthesis or photosynthesis, it has to be an heterotrophic plant. The answer to the question is B. All organisms that cannot synthesize their food by means of photosynthesis or chemosynthesis are heterotrophic.
They are all freshwater. So the closest would be c. an estuary since it has a free connection with the sea since the sea is not freshwater. So C. hope this helps!
Leaching is the process where dissolved nutrients in the
soil profile moves downward with percolating water. It is the loss of
water-soluble plant nutrients from the soil. The nutrients that seep through
the rooting zone may be recycled if roots grow deeper.
