Which of the following best describes the matter present in an ecosystem

The waste materials generated by one organism are often reused by other organisms.Mass, or matter, is conserved in all physical and chemical changes. Matter is not created or destroyed within ecosystems, it only undergoes physical or chemical changes. One example of this process is that the waste materials generated by one organism are often reused by other organisms as food or nutrients

I hope this helps

the two answers are a, the population of birds with large beaks will increase on the island, and c, the trait for large beaks will be passed on to future generations through natural selection. the reason for that is because if the birds that have beaks developed for eating small seeds lose all of their food, they will go hungry and eventually starve because they physically cannot eat the large seeds, therefore making the population of large beaked birds higher. also, if the trait of large beaks are dominant on the island over small beaks, then over time the large beaked birds will reproduce more and more, while the smaller beaked birds will reproduce less and less because they can't survive with the food provided. that leads to the trait of small beaks disappearing and the trait of large beaks taking over the island.
