Explanation:

This type of question demands vocabulary knowledge and understanding of the context. These are the steps I would recommend to answer it:

1. Read the words you must use to fill in the blanks first. If you do not know some of them, look up their meanings.

2. Read the paragraph that must be completed. Since you already know what words to use, it will be easy to see where some of them will go already.

3. Work through elimination. Use the words you are sure about first. For instance, in the passage, when ecology is mentioned, it is quite clear that we will need the word "plants".

4. When you are done with the words you are certain of, go slow with the ones you are left with. Read the sentences again, try different words, and choose the one that best fits the context.
