Question

read the passage. then answer the question below. rain forests in indonesia have at least 15,000 species of plants, more than any other forest in the world. these plants include sugar palms, bornean ironwood, and durian trees. bornean orangutans spend most of their lives in trees. staying in the trees helps the orangutans avoid predators such as the saltwater crocodiles that live in the rivers below. but other predators, such as sunda clouded leopards, can climb trees to hunt orangutans. in a rain forest in indonesia, the bornean orangutans, the saltwater crocodiles, and the rivers make up which of the following? select all that apply. a population part of a community part of an ecosystem

Explanation:

• A population is a group of the same species. Here, we have multiple species (Bornean orangutans, saltwater crocodiles) and non - living elements (rivers), so it's not a population.
• A community is all the living organisms in an area. But we have non - living (rivers) along with living (orangutans, crocodiles), so not just part of a community.
• An ecosystem includes all living organisms (biotic factors like orangutans, crocodiles) and non - living components (abiotic factors like rivers) in a particular area.

Answer:

part of an ecosystem
