</span>The milkweed is the primary producer in the
ecosystem. It manufactures food from the abiotic factors in the soil such as
nitrates and water and those in the atmosphere such as carbon-dioxide and
sunlight. The milk weed is then fed on by the caterpillar and a primary
consumer. The caterpillar is then fed on the mocking bird (secondary consumer)

</span>Increased human population growth and their activities
have resulted in the emission of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in
the atmosphere. This has increased the global temperature. This increase of
global temperature increase ocean temperatures causing coral bleaching.
Another example is depletion of water sources
by human activities hence causing drought. Drought reduces the amount of
vegetation growth due to scarcity of water in the soil (due to lowering of the
water table) for plant growth.
<span>The answer is letter B. The formation of the three geminal layers and the primitive gut. The formation of gastrula starts when the cells starts folding in blastula slowly forming into a blastopore, that results to a double layer cup cell, forming the geminal layers and the primitive gut </span>
He would say that Lamarck's theory is wrong. Lamarck's theory stated that traits that are used are passed on to the offspring. In other words, if an organism changes during its lifetime in order to adapt to its environment, then its changes will be passed on to its offspring. This is wrong because this means that organisms pass on traits based on genetic information and not based on the environment of the offspring.
Hope this helps.
