Explanation:

Question 21

The term for the amount of resource used and waste generated is "throughput". Ecosystem services are benefits from ecosystems, ecology is the study of ecosystems, and sustainability is about long - term viability. So the correct option is A.

Good quality of life indicators include high life expectancy, access to clean water, high adult literacy, and low poverty. High total fertility (A) is not an indicator of good quality of life as it can be associated with challenges like resource strain in some contexts.

Answer:

A. throughput
