Defenses against herbivory and adaptations related to wind dispersal of pollen are likely to cause human health problems.

<h3>What are defense responses against herbivores?</h3>

The first line of defense in plants is an intact and impenetrable barrier composed of bark and a waxy cuticle. Both protect plants against herbivores.

Other adaptations against herbivores include hard shells, thorns (modified branches), and spines (modified leaves).

They discourage animals by causing physical damage or by inducing rashes and allergic reactions.

Some Acacia tree species have developed mutualistic relationships with ant colonies: they offer the ants shelter in their hollow thorns in exchange for the ants’ defense of the tree’s leaves

How did the environment affect the populations of peppered moths in the 1800s in London?
Olenka [21]

Answer:

Option A. Because of the soot covering everything, the dirtier darker moths will be eaten less often, allowing them to reproduce and pass their genes on to the next generation.

Explanation: Sooth is the black powder which is produced due to incomplete combustion of carbon containing compounds. In the england, before industrial revolution, the population of white peppered moth were high due to clean environment and unable to see by the birds during night. When industrial revolution occurs, there is sooth spread on all the trees which is black in color so the population of black peppered moth increases because they can't be seen in the dark by the birds and population of white peppered moth decreases due to easily seen by the birds.
