Explanation:

Secondary consumers are the animals that eat the primary consumers.

They are heterotrophs, specifically carnivores and omnivores. Carnivores only eat other animals. Omnivores eat a combination of plants and animals. They are typically small to medium animals like lizards, robins, and frogs. Secondary consumers are usually not the last organism in a food chain. They are often eaten by large predators, the tertiary consumers.

soil. Swamps, marshes, and other wetland areas help to control flooding because they naturally hold water. Wetland regeneration

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Restoring farmlands to wetlands consists of a lot of pro and cons. Firstly, they should consider that wetlands will greatly filter carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and reduce greenhouse gases. Wetlands restoration would probably affect the lives of the nearby human residents negatively. This is due to the fact that wetlands provides an optimal habitat to wild animals especially dangerous carnivores like alligators. The regeneration project will expand the habitats of animals, and clean the water system but it will remove the nutrients from the soil.

The answer is D. In a geological era, when the plants and animals in the then environment die, they get buried in sediments. These sediments are covered by other sediments of another geological time within which are the remains of dead species of the then geological era. These sediments from different geological times have different properties hence form visible strata that can be studied to identify the kind of environment in the then geological time. Their fossils can also be studied to identify the kind of species that roamed the earth during the time.
