What term describes the balance of animals and plants in their environment?

  1. Autotroph

  2. Auxin

  3. Bacillus

  4. Balance in Nature

The correct answer is: Balance in Nature

The term that describes the balance of animals and plants in their environment is called "Balance in Nature." While autotrophs, such as plants, create their own food through photosynthesis and auxin is a hormone found in plants that aids in growth, these terms do not specifically refer to the balance between animals and plants in their environment. Bacillus, on the other hand, is a type of bacteria and is not related to the balance of animals and plants. Therefore, the most appropriate and accurate choice is "Balance in Nature."
