Food is the source of energy that is used by the organism for the process of metabolism. Maggots are the larva of flies and depend on dead and decaying matters.

Maggots are:

Option C. Decomposers

This type of organism can be explained as:

  • The organism is classified into different classes according to the nature of its feeding habits.

  • <u>Autotrophs </u>are called the primary producer and break inorganic compounds into organic for energy.

  • <u>Producers </u>are the organism that produces their food by converting solar energy into chemical energy.

  • <u>Decomposers </u>are small-sized organism that lives in soil and breaks the organic compound of dead and decayed bodies.

  • <u>Heterotrophs </u>are organism that depends on other sources and producers for energy.

Therefore, maggots are decomposers.

Which of these is least likely to be an adaptation of an organism to its environment?
Mkey [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is "C. Cave fish have evolved degenerated eyes because they have no use for vision in dark, underwater caves."

Explanation:

All of these statements about organism adaptation to its environment are true, but the real reason why cave-fish are blind is not because there's no use for their eyes in the dark, but because being blind saves them energy, as using one's vision requires the activity of photoreceptive cells and neurons, and underground caves are lacking in both food and oxygen.
