Answer:

C. Oxygen supply

Explanation:

Autotrophs make their own food with carbon dioxide and create oxygen as a byproduct. Heterotrophs need oxygen to create energy and create carbon dioxide as a byproduct. Therefore, if there are no autotrophs, the carbon dioxide in the air won’t be able to be used to turn to oxygen, which heterotrophs need. The heterotrophs will use up all of the oxygen in the air, leaving lots of carbon dioxide behind. This is why we need plants and trees! Thus, the answer is C.

I hope this helps! :)

"the _____ controls the release of our body s stress hormone, cortisol."
zepelin [54]
The correct answer is HPA axis.

The Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis is one of the most important neuroendocrine systems, which regulates the stress response and other functions such as the digestion, mood, emotions and the immune system.

The hypothalamus, when triggered by a possible stressor, releases two hormones; the vasopressin and the corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH). CRH, in turn, triggers the release of the adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH) from the pituitary gland. As a result of the secretion of ACTH, cortisol is secreted by the adrenal cortex.

Cortisol is a steroid hormone, considered to be our body's stress hormone.
