Answer:

The correct answer is c. an efficient system for conducting water and minerals.

Explanation:

Non-vascular plants lack the internal tubes or vessels that carry water and minerals or nutrients through the entire plant. Most of them are found in humid or submerged places, since this type of environment allows them to absorb water through the surface of their tissues. Non-vascular plants do not grow very tall due to the lack of structures normally associated with vascular plants. Non-vascular plants lack specialized vascular tissue (xylem and phloem) for conduction and internal support of water and food. Metabolites and other nutrients are transferred between and within cells by osmosis, diffusion, and cytoplasmic flow.

The scientific law of one organism feeding off other where energy is transferred from one form to another is known as the law of conservation of energy.

<h3>How the sun is the primary source of energy for ecosystems?</h3>

Energy from the highest energy source that is sun is absorbed by plants to convert it into food (i.e a form of energy). plants are the only ones that can convert sunlight into another form of energy directly.

The animals and organisms that feed off of the plants take some part of this energy for their life cycles and then the animals that feed off of these animals again take some part of this energy and carry on with their life cycle, this is how energy from sun (highest source) is transferred to different organisms by Just changing form.

Thus, The scientific law of one organism feeding off other where energy is transferred.
