A decrease of the biodiversity of an ecosystem is one of the prime cause for a reduction in ecosystem productivty.
What is ecosystem productivity?Productivity in ecology signifies towards the rate of generation of biomass in an ecosystem. Generally it is articulated in units of mass per volume per unit time. A decrease in biodiversity is one of the major cause of a decrease in ecosystem productivity.
The loss of biodiversity generally takes place by five prime factors:
Invasive speciesHabitat lossOverexploitationClimate changePollutionA reduction in biodiversity results in a decrease in the stability of the ecosystem. As a change to one organism will exhibit a greater influence on the entire ecosystem.
Thus, the correct answer is option b.

why do the other planets take longer to orbit the Sun than the inner planets do
Answer:
Outer planets take longer to orbit than inner planets because of the greater distance they need to cover. They also are further from the sun weakening the power of the suns gravitational pull which causes then to orbit slower.

I would really a appreciate if you would be so kind to tell me which one of thease words dose the meaning belong to please and thank u
Answer:
A.)Prokaryotic
Explanation:
Based on the organization of their structures, all living cells can be classified into two groups: prokaryotic and eukaryotic. Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus. The DNA in a prokaryotic cell is bunched up in the center of the cell.
Fifty years ago, bed bugs were nearly eliminated in the United States by using of pesticides like DDT. Today bed bugs are back in beds and theaters. DDT is no longer used due to environmental issues. Pyrethrums are currently the top choice for bed bug infestations. Pyrethrums are especially useful to us because they generally have a stronger effect on bugs than on humans and animals.
Some bed bugs had mutations in their genetic code which allowed them to survive the chemical pesticide and they produced chemically resistant offspring. How can this be explained?
Question 5 options:
bed bugs chose other bugs to partner with who had the mutation
mutations involved in the genetic variation of the bugs were chosen by them
bed bugs chose other bugs to partner with who had no mutations
mutations involved in the genetic variation of the bugs are random

Two heterozygous parents have ___________chance of contributing one of their alleles to each offspring
Answer:
Two heterozygous parents have a 50% chance of contributing one of their alleles to each offspring.
Explanation:
Individuals who are heterozygous for a specific trait have two different alleles in the gene that determines that trait. This characteristic makes their chances of contributing each of their alleles to the offspring 50%.
The alleles of a gene are distributed in the gametes by the process of meiosis, which results in daughter cells with half the genetic charge, so each gamete can only have one copy of the allelic pair of a gene.
On the other hand, if an individual has two equal alleles for a characteristic in a gene, he has a 100% chance of passing that allele on to his descendants.

Explain the basis for the great diversity of proteins in living organism.
Answer:
Explanation:
Protein functions are so diverse because of the many unique three-dimensional structures protein polymers form. Despite such variety, proteins also share several specific structural characteristics in their monomers, the amino acids. Structural similarities among amino acids make protein synthesis a uniform and regulated process; however, each amino acid contains a unique structural component as well. Specific differences between each amino acid interact to create unique three-dimensional protein structures. Combined, the similarities and differences between amino acids explain how cells can build a diverse pool of proteins from the same set of building blocks. Protein synthesis involves building a polymer of amino acids with complex three-dimensional structure. Dehydration synthesis forms a peptide bond between amino acids and releases a water molecule.
