'Eat and be eaten' refers to
Answer: C
The expression 'Eat and be eaten' is used in the passage when the author says that if we do not think long term, nature will find its own ways to set limits. It describes the harsh outcome that will fall on mankind: humans who consume nature will in the end be consumed by the limits nature sets. So the phrase refers to mankind.
It does not refer to nature, which is the one that sets the limits, nor to science. Future generations are mentioned in the next sentence as the ones who must experience the fatal limits, but the phrase itself is aimed at mankind as a whole.
