Answer:
a. parasitism:
The parasite benefits by harming the host e.g hookworms and humans
b. commensalism
In this association, one species benefits while the other is unaffected (its not harm and dies not benefit) e.g. epiphytic orchids and trees
c. mutualism
Here, both species benefit as seen in rumen bacteria and cows
Explanation:
Parasitism = +/- relationship
The predator benefits by harming the host. E.g. hookworms and humans. The hookworm (parasite) eat man blood while man (host) loses blood to it.
Commensalism = +/0 relationship
One specie(s) benefits while the other specie(s) neither benefits nor is harmed. E.g. epiphytic orchids live on tree branches or tree trunks as it's habitat or shelter while the trees neither benefits nor is harmed
Mutualism = +/+ relationship
Both organisms benefit in this relationship. E.g. rumen microbes aids grass digestion in cows, while the microbes benefit as it obtain steady food or nutrient from the cow
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Predation is another mechanism in which species interact with each other. Predation is when a predator organism feeds on another living organism or organisms, known as prey. The predator always lowers the prey's fitness. Also, a predator is an organism that eats another organism. The prey is the organism which the predator eats. Some examples of predator and prey are lion and zebra, bear and fish, and fox and rabbit.
Answer:
e. both vitamin c and carotenoids
Explanation:
Age-related macular degeneration is an eye related disease which causes our macula to degenerate. It leads to blurred vision which further impacts our abilities like sewing, reading and driving adversely. It can be cured by intake of vitamin C and carotenoids in appropriate amount. Cataract is another disease related to eyes which most commonly occurs in old age people. In this disease, the eye lenses appear cloudy because of the changes in the eye lens tissue. Beta carotene and vitamin C both are very helpful in restricting cataract.
