C Herbivores providd energy to barn owls and brown bats
(D
Producers get energy from cucumber beetles and voles.

C Herbivores provide energy to barn owls and brown bats

Explanation:

The table shows what each organism feeds on. This means it shows where organisms get their energy from.

A cannot be correct, as barn owls do not eat cucumber beetles. Instead, they eat voles and shrews.

B cannot be correct, as voles do not eat cucumber beetles, they only eat plants and are herbivores.

D cannot be correct, as producers are plants (i.e. they are at the bottom of the food chain, and produce the energy (from photosynthesis) that goes into the food chain. Therefore, they get their energy from the sun.

The correct answer hsa to be C, herbivores provide energy to barn owls and brown bats. This is true, if you look at what they eat, it includes voles and cucumber beetles. As we can see from the table, these organisms consume plants, making them herbivores. So herbivores provide energy to barn owls and brown bats.

answer: option (b) is the correct answer.

explanation:

a covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons. whereas polarity arises due to difference in electronegativity of two atoms.

therefore, more is the electronegativity of an atom which combines with the titanium, more readily it will induce a partial positive and negative charge.

thus, out of the given options fluorine is most electronegative and has an incomplete octet. therefore, it will readily combine with titanium to share the electrons and complete its octet.
