Ecosystem is that it is a community or group of living organisms that live in and interact with each other in a specific environment.
For instance, tropical forests are ecosystems made up of living beings such as trees, plants, animals, insects and micro-organisms that are in constant interaction between themselves and that are affected by other physical (sun, temperature) or chemical (oxygen or nutrients) components.
An ecosystem consists of a community of organisms together with their physical environment.
Ecosystems can be of different sizes and can be marine, aquatic, or terrestrial. Broad categories of terrestrial ecosystems are called biomes.
In ecosystems, both matter and energy are conserved. Energy flows through the system—usually from light to heat—while matter is recycled.
Ecosystems with higher biodiversity tend to be more stable with greater resistance and resilience in the face of disturbances, or disruptive events.

The shorter the food chain, the larger amount of energy obtained.
Hence, the consumer furthest away from the producer obtains the least energy.
The quaternary consumer is furthest away. Most energy is lost by then. Hence, it has access to the smallest supply of energy.
Answer:
A. The rice genes didn't make the right type of vitamin A.
Explanation:
Regular white rice does not have the gene to produce beta carotene. The human body converts the beta carotene into vitamin A.
To increase the nutritional value of rice, the gene for beta carotene from daffodil flowers was inserted into the cells of endosperm of rice.
This allowed these cells of the genetically engineered rice varieties to produce beta carotene. Production of beta carotene imparted golden color to the rice grain and hence, the name.
The structure of the nucleus is that it has the protons (+) and the neutrons (0).
