Answer & Explanation:
a) a) Mutualistic relationship differs from parasitism because the first one benefits both of the involved organisms. Otherwise, parasitism benefits only one of the organisms and it can harm the host. Therefore, the parasite would have to be smaller than the host and it would be somehow extracting energy from the host.
b) The direction of evolutionary changes would follow some kind of pattern, like coevolution. Therefore, analyzing the phylogenies individually and then contrasting them, would help to understand how the host, as well as the parasite, have been evolving.
c) The phylogeny would also help to understand what changed first, or if they changed together as a result of coevolution.
Answer:
the answer for this question is seed
Explanation:
Answer:
16. Directional Selection
17. Disruptive Selection
18. Stabilizing Selection
19. Natural Selection
20. Adaptation
Explanation:
In population genetics, directional selection/positive selection is a mode of natural selection in which an extreme phenotype is favored over other phenotypes.
Disruptive Selection would show phenotypes (individuals with groups of traits) of both extremes but have very few individuals in the middle.
Stabilizing Selection. Occurs when individuals at the extremes of the range of characteristic are selected against. This means that the "average" individuals are selected for.
