1) Chordata=A chordate is an animal of the phylum Chordata. All chordates possess 5 synapomorphies, or primary characteristics, at some point during their larval or adulthood stages that distinguish them from all other taxa

2) Vertebrates=vertebrate, also called Craniata, any animal of the subphylum Vertebrata, the predominant subphylum of the phylum Chordata. The vertebrates are also characterized by a muscular system consisting primarily of bilaterally paired masses and a central nervous system partly enclosed within the backbone.

3)Invertebrates=Invertebrates are animals that neither possess nor develop a vertebral column, derived from the notochord. This includes all animals apart from the chordate subphylum Vertebrata. Familiar examples of invertebrates include arthropods, mollusks, annelid, and cnidarians.

4) Poikilothermic animals=A poikilotherm is an animal whose internal temperature varies considerably. Poikilotherms have to survive and adapt to environmental stress.

5) Homeothermic animals=The term homeothermic refers to the warm-blooded animals which have constant and relatively higher temperature. They are animals which can maintain their internal body temperature. Complete answer: Homeothermic animals are warm-blooded and maintain a constant body temperature, for example birds and mammals.

6) Oviparous= producing young by means of eggs which are hatched after they have been laid by the parent, as in birds.

7)Vivaparous=bringing forth live young which have developed inside the body of the parent

Animals get carbon by eating plants or by eating other animals.

so the correct answer would be C

The lion eats an herbivore that ate the grass

Plants use carbon dioxide for photosynthesis. By doing so, they remove inorganic carbon from the atmosphere and incorporate it into the plants’ tissues in the form of organic carbon (sugar and starch).

Carbon is returned to an inorganic state in a number of ways. As an animal breathes (respires), it exhales carbon dioxide, returning it back to the atmosphere. When an animal or plant dies, it is broken down by bacteria and fungi and again the carbon is released (this process is called decomposition).

Sometimes, instead of completely decomposing, a plant or animal may be fossilised, leading to its carbon being stored in a rock. After millions of years and under the right conditions, these fossils may turn into fossil fuels (oil, coal and natural gas).

hope this helps!!
