Use an example to define and explain commensalism

Commensalism is a relationship between two organisms where one receives a benefit or benefits from the other and the other is not affected by it. In other words, one is benefited and the other is neither benefited nor harmed.

example
Tree frog - The frog uses plants or trees for protection from the rain

Commensalism is a symbiotic relationship in which one member benefits from the relationship, and the other is neither harmed nor does it benefit. Commensalism may be thought of as a positive-zero relationship in which one organism benefits, and the other is neither harmed nor hurt.

An example of commensalism is army ants that live in tropical areas. These army ants move across the rain forest and jungle and eat whatever they can find. Another kind of insect, a type of silverfish, marches right along with them. The silverfish are there in small numbers, and they don’t seem to compete for food with the army ants. The silverfish gain protection from predators by being in the midst of all the ants. They may get food left over from the ants. The silverfish benefit, while the army ants are neither harmed nor helped.

Who is studying animals in the wild considered to be somewhat experimentally out of control
KIM [24]

Studying animals in the wild is considered somewhat experimentally out of control because of several reasons.  

<u>Explanation:</u>

Study of wild animals can be done using several methods but none will be as effective as studying captivated animals. Using stationary cameras is a method to observe animals in the wild. The stationary nature of the camera makes it necessary for the animals to appear within the field of the camera.

This is difficult in places of low animal density. In addition to that placing camera at a longer distance to watch a larger area decreases the resolution of the images. When it comes to shallow water systems, the field imagery used to track the aquatic species frequently gets affected by issues like sun flicker.  

Unmanned aerial vehicles can also be used to track and study animals in the wild. This is good alternative but filming through dense canopies or turbid water is a limitation. Bio loggers can also be used for animal tracking but it is limited by weight since it has to be carried by animals.

Answer:

Groundwater

Although this may seem surprising, water beneath the ground is commonplace. Usually groundwater travels slowly and silently beneath the surface, but in some locations it bubbles to the surface at springs. The products of erosion and deposition by groundwater were described in the Erosion and Deposition chapter.

Groundwater is the largest reservoir of liquid fresh water on Earth and is found in aquifers, porous rock and sediment with water in between. Water is attracted to the soil particles and capillary action, which describes how water moves through a porous media, moves water from wet soil to dry areas.

Aquifers are found at different depths. Some are just below the surface and some are found much deeper below the land surface. A region may have more than one aquifer beneath it and even most deserts are above aquifers. The source region for an aquifer beneath a desert is likely to be far from where the aquifer is located; for example, it may be in a mountain area.

The amount of water that is available to enter groundwater in a region is influenced by the local climate, the slope of the land, the type of rock found at the surface, the vegetation cover, land use in the area, and water retention, which is the amount of water that remains in the ground. More water goes into the ground where there is a lot of rain, flat land, porous rock, exposed soil, and where water is not already filling the soil and rock.

The residence time of water in a groundwater aquifer can be from minutes to thousands of years. Groundwater is often called “fossil water” because it has remained in the ground for so long, often since the end of the ice ages.
