• A. I-C II-B III-K IV-P
• B. I-A II-G III-L IV-N
• C. I-C II-A III-K IV-L
• D. I-A II-B III-C IV-D

Answer 1

The correct option is A I-C II-B III-K IV-P

Ecosystem attributes are focused on habitat characteristics that may affect a species such as its condition, structure, or whether there are support areas present. There are following attributes consider in different units:

Natality is the ratio of a number of birth to the size of the population. It is also known as birth rate.

A predator is an organism that eats another organism. The prey is the organism which the predator eats. Some examples of predator and prey are lion and zebra, bear and fish, and fox and rabbit.

energy flow, also called the calorific flow, refers to the flow of energy through a food chain and is the focus of study in ecological energetics.

So the correct option is 'I-C II-B III-K IV-P'.
