Answer:

Parasitism

Explanation:

First, let's define each term.

<u>Mutualism:</u> A symbiotic relationship where both organisms benefit

<u>Commensalism: </u>An association where one organism benefits, and the other is not harmed or benefited.

<u>Neutralism: </u>2 organism interact but they have no effect on each other.

<u>Parasitism: </u>A symbiotic relationship where a parasite lives in or on another organism and harms the organism.

A dog and a tick are an example of parasitism. The tick lives on the dog and drinks the dog's blood. This is the food for the tick, so the tick is benefiting by gaining a food source. The dog can be harmed if the tick is carrying a disease, such as Lyme disease.

In the past several years we have seen increased numbers of forest fires occurring in our tropical rainforests. While natural bu
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Increased global temperatures, leading to a 20% reduction in rainfall

Explanation:

According to this question, forest fires are becoming rampant in tropical rainforests. Although this occurrence is natural, tropical rainforests do not typically undergo this natural process due to the average yearly amount of rainfall. This means that the high amount of rainfall in tropical rainforests help prevent or reduce the high cases of forest fire incidence.

However, the recent increased occurrence of tropical rainforest fires is most likely attributed to an INCREASE IN GLOBAL TEMPERATURES, LEADING TO A 20% REDUCTION IN RAINFALL. This is because an increase in the global atmospheric temperature causes the reduction of the amount of rainfall, which naturally helps curb the occurrence of forest fires.

A woman heterozygous for polydactyly (extra fingers and toes), a dominant trait, is married to a normal man. What is the probabi
Feliz [49]

Answer:

The correct answer is -50%

Explanation:

Polydactyly is a dominant trait where a person gets an extra finger or toes the dominant allele is represented by P = allele for polydactyly, and the recessive allele represented by p = normal allele

So, the heterozygous woman will be - Pp & the normal man will be - pp.  The presence of one allele of polydactyly will be able to show its effect as it is dominant.

Cross between heterozygous woman & normal man:

Gametes:

   P                              p

p Pp (Show polydactyly) pp (Normal phenotype)

p Pp (Show polydactyly) pp (Normal phenotype)

From the above Punnett square, the probability of an offspring that has extra fingers or toes will be 1/2 or 50%.
