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.

Before classifying insects into different orders, review the larger classifications for insects:
sukhopar [10]

For an organism to be classified in the animal kingdom it is necessary for that organism to be eukaryotic and multicellular. In addition, he must not be able to produce his own food (he must be heterotrophic), and must eat by eating food taken from the environment.

To be classified in the dilo arthropoda, the organism must have an external skeleton, a segmented body and articulated legs.

To be classified in the insect class, the organism must have a separate body in the head, chest and abdomen, have two antennae, two pairs of wings and three pairs of legs.

Which behavior can reduce pollution that occurs due to the use of coal?
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Coal is majorly used to produces electricity. The coal is ignited and the heat produced used to heat water to steam. The steam is then used to drive turbines with a dynamo effect to produce electricity. Turning off lights when not in use reduces the demand for electricity hence reducing the amount of coal needed to meet this demand.

Other ways to conserve energy is using bulbs with low energy demand - such as LEDs - and  improving natural lighting indoors.
