Option E

Explanation:

Panama Canal is an artificial or man-made waterway of 82 km located in transcontinental country in Central America and South America named as "Panama". France was the very first nation to start work on the canal in 1881 but after some engineering issues they eliminated themselves from the project.

In 1901 the United States leaded the project which finally resulted into inaugural ceremony of the panama canal on 15th August, 1914.The bypass, one of the largest and most complex engineering projects ever undertaken, significantly reduced the time for ships to pass between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Therefore it allowed them to avoid the long, risky Cape Horn path around the southernmost tip of South America via the Drake Passage or Magellan Strait.

they each offer a fresh glut of resources to the organisms that can arrive and exploit them. as individuals and new species continue to appear, they actively and passively alter the environment. competition for shared resources increases, local abiotic and biotic conditions shift, and the relative abundances of species change accordingly. the process is called ecological succession, and it is one of the earliest and most well-known concepts in ecology.
