The organism that was most likely to live at the same time as brachiopods were
Trilobites
Brachiopods were like lamshells. They lived underwater, had soft bodies and their shells were bivalves.
Trilobites had three-lobed bodies. They could swim, crawl, and burrow.
Answer:
The correct answer is D)
Cycle energy and matter to support the biosphere as a closed energy system
Explanation:
The earth as we know it is a closed energy system that is, matter cannot be introduced or removed from it. Sometimes, rare meterites enter into the system with minimal or no disruption.
Also, energy can enter and leave. The energy mostly referenced here is the sun.
Within the earths system, the lithosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere materials and energy go through a cycle which helps to support life.
For example, water when heated up by the sun rises as vapour from the earth and oceans into the atmosphere where it cools and condenses. When it cools and condenses, it
, in the form of rain, comes down on the earth and oceans. As rain falls down to the earth and runs off the rocks, rocks are broken down into smaller fragments and soils. The hydrosphere comprises of all water bodies on earth. Besides the vapours which are evaporated from the same into the atmosphere, when volcanoes erupt they also send vapourised water into the atmosphere.
So because the earth is a closed system, a change in one sphere effects a change in others. An example is a change in the water cycle.
Cheers
The cycle that is described in the problem is called the water cycle. in this cycle, the water from a lake is evaporated through the heat of the sun and the water is accumulated in the clouds. When the clouds are saturated, then water condenses and precipitates to fall as rain.

In some plants, starch is stored in cell organelles called amyloplasts. Some plant roots and embryos, in the form of seeds and fruit, also serve as storage units for starch. Cells in plant leaves produce starch in the presence of sunlight.
