The serious health effects of the chemicals comprise developmental and reproductive issues, hormone disruption, low sperm count, asthma, undescended testes, preterm birth, premature puberty, and development of certain kinds of cancers.
Answer:
6. Parasitism
9. mutualism
10. predation
7. predation
8. mutualism
Explanation:
Living organisms, in their natural habitat, forms certain relationships with one another. These relationships are as follows:
- Mutualism is the association of two organisms in which both organisms benefits from one another in the relationship. Example is butterfly and flower in this question, where the butterfly helps pollinate the flower while the plants provide food source for the butterfly. Another example is coral reefs and fishes where the fishes and coral depend on one another.
- Predation is the kind of relationship in which one living organism called PREDATOR kills and feeds on another called PREY. Examples are the relationship between birds and worms, lion and buffalo where the bird and lion are predators while worm and buffalo are preys.
- Parasitism is the relationship between two organisms in which one organism called PARASITE lives on and derive nourishments from another organism called HOST. In the example of aphid and rose plant where the aphid is the parasite and rose plant is the host.
Example of selective breeding: Cows that produce lots of milk. Selective breeding to create more useful varieties of animals and plants is a form of biotechnology that human beings have used for thousands of years. Biotechnology includes any use of science or technology to alter the characteristics of a particular breed or animal.
