Biology

The correct answer is B. Isotopes

Explanation:

Chemical elements are defined according to their proton number (particles positively charged), for example, in hydrogen, the atomic number is 1. Also,  atoms of the same element usually have the same number of electrons (particles negatively charged) if the atom is neutral.

However, atoms of the same element can differ in the number of neutrons and therefore there are atoms with the same number of protons and electrons but not the same number of neutrons, these are known as isotopes. This variety in neutrons affects the properties of the atom such as reactivity. For example, hydrogen has three isotopes: tritium, deuterium, and protium and form this tritium is the more radioactive.

How does an animal’s level of fitness relate to its chances of survival and reproduction?
Mademuasel [1]
An animal that is healthier will have a better chance of survival due to better strength, and also be better suited to winning a mate. Animals that are weak or sick are most likely to die off or be killed by a predator or natural reasons, if this animal survives, it will most likely not get a mate because the mate will not be attracted to the sickened animal, considering how most animals search for a healthy mate to reproduce with. (Usually there is some type of court ship dance or song of some sort, and it is usually the more healthy animal that is able to "perform" the best dance/song for the mate it is trying to win over) Hope that this helped!

Is the benefit gained by each individual in a mutualistic relationship equal?
arsen [322]

Answer:

It is not necessary that both partners get equal benefits from each other.

Explanation:

Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship between two individuals. In mutualism both the partners get benefitted from each other but it is not necessary that both get equal benefits from each other.

Every mutualistic relationship is different and in all mutualistic relationships, altruistic behavior is not seen by any partner species. Each partner is selfish and help the other partner unintentionally in mutualism. So it is not necessary that each partner gain equal benefit in this relationship.
