Correct Answer:
Option C - In 1942, Raymond L. Lindeman published a seminar paper titled "The Trophic-Dynamic Aspect of Ecology", which was a significant contribution to the field of ecology. His work provided a new perspective on ecosystems by describing them in terms of energy transformation and was foundational in the development of systems ecology. Lindeman's study was based on his research on food interactions of organisms in Cedar Bog Lake in Minnesota and attempted to construct the first energy budget for an entire ecosystem.
