Earthworms are a species of worms that live in moist soils along with other organisms like tiny insects and bacteria. earthworms obtain water and nutrients by eating dead plant materials found in the soil. earthworms also release waste materials that enrich the soil.

based on this information, which sentence is correct?

a) the earthworms are an environment.

b) the earthworms are a community.

c) soil is the earthworm's habitat.

d) soil is the earthworm's niche.

d) soil is the earthworm's niche.

Explanation:

An ecological niche can be define as the role which an organism plays in an ecosystem to survive and reproduce. The organism interacts with the surrounding environment and with the other living beings in order to survive.

Among the options given, d) soil is the earthworm's niche. is the correct option. This is because of the fact that an earthworm performs the function of decomposition and degradation of the dead plant materials in the soil. This way it helps in cleaning the soil ecosystem. The materials obtain after this process helps in enriching the soil. Thus the earthworm also performs the function of adding up minerals to the soil.

I'm pretty sure its D. soil is the earthworm's niche.

a fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis.[1] the age of the organisms and their resulting fossil fuels is typically millions of years, and sometimes exceeds 650 million years.[2] fossil fuels contain high percentages of carbon and include petroleum, coal, and natural gas.[3] other commonly used derivatives include kerosene and propane. fossil fuels range from volatile materials with low carbon to hydrogen ratios like methane, to liquids like petroleum, to nonvolatile materials composed of almost pure carbon, like anthracite coal. methane can be found in hydrocarbon fields either alone, associated with oil, or in the form of methane clathrates.

the theory that fossil fuels formed from the fossilized remains of dead plants by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over millions of years was first introduced by andreas libavius "in his 1597 alchemia [alchymia]" and later by mikhail lomonosov "as early as 1757 and certainly by 1763".[4] the first use of the term "fossil fuel" was by the german chemist caspar neumann, in english translation in 1759.[5]

in 2017 the world's primary energy sources consisted of petroleum (34%), coal (28%), natural gas (23%), amounting to an 85% share for fossil fuels in primary energy consumption in the world.[6] non-fossil sources in 2006 included nuclear (8.5%), hydroelectric (6.3%), and others (geothermal, solar, tidal, wind, wood, waste) amounting to 0.9%.[7] world energy consumption was growing at about 2.3% per year. in 2015 about 18% of worldwide consumption was from renewable sources.[8]
