Which statement describes how predation and parasitism are similar? A. Both organisms benefit from the relationship. B. One organism is benefited and the other is not hurt or harmed by the relationship. C. One organism is benefited and the other is harmed by the association. D. Neither organism benefits from the association.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: the answer is C. One organism is benefited and the other is harmed by the association. a lion eats a zebra the lion gets food but the zebra does not get helped, and parasitism  is the same the parasite drains your nutrients and the host weakens.

Do predators really kill only the old and sick prey? What evidence is there for this statement

Answers

There are many factors that determine what a predator will prey on. For instance if the predator is starving or if they are hunting in a pack. Predators will usually prey on animals that are easiest to be captured without using too much energy. The sick, young, old, small and unaware animals will often times fall prey since they are easiest to be caught. Predators don't necessarily prey only on the ill/ injured. Sick prey may be overlooked because their bodies may not provide the necessary sustence for the predator and others it may be feeding. Healthy large slow moving animals may be difficult to kill but the payoff is greater, especially if a pack is involved.

Final answer:

Predators do not only kill old and sick prey. They can also target healthy prey depending on factors like population dynamics and resource abundance.

Explanation:

Yes, predators do not only kill old and sick prey. Predation is a complex interaction that involves predators hunting and consuming prey. While predators may target weaker and more vulnerable individuals, they can also target healthy and strong individuals if necessary.

One example of this is the cycling of predator and prey populations, such as the lynx and snowshoe hare. As the hare population increases, there is more food available for the lynx, allowing its population to increase as well. However, when the lynx population grows too large, it can kill a significant number of hares, leading to a decline in the hare population due to scarcity of food.

Therefore, predators can kill both old and sick prey as well as healthy prey, depending on various factors such as population dynamics, abundance of resources, and competition.

What is the correlation between salinity and density?

Answers

Salinity is the concentration of dissolved salts in water. Density is the degree of compactness in a substance. By determining the salinity of a substance, you would also be determining the density.
The more salt in water, the denser water becomes. This is your correlation.

How does crossing over add to the genetic diversity of sexually reproducing organisms

Answers

Crossover is the first way that genes are shuffled to give rise to genetic diversity. Crossover takes place in sexual reproduction.Chromosomes line up side by side and break off pieces of themselves, then trade those pieces with each other.When they break at the same place (locus) in the sequence of base pairs, the result is an exchange of genes called genetic recombination. That is the normal way for crossover to occur.Genetic recombination ensures that the daughter cells produced have a different genetic makeup from the parent cell and thus diversity is created.

At the type of plate boundary shown in the image above, two plates are sliding past each other. Which type of plate boundary is shown in this image?A.
