A rock, a car, something nonliving.
Answer:
Parasitism is a close relationship between species, where one organism, the parasite, lives on or inside another organism, the host, causing it some harm, and is adapted structurally to this way of life. Explanation: The entomologist E. O. Wilson has characterised parasites as "predators that eat prey in units of less than one". Parasites include single-celled protozoans such as the agents of malaria, sleeping sickness, and amoebic dysentery; animals such as hookworms, lice, mosquitoes, and vampire bats; fungi such as honey fungus and the agents of ringworm; and plants such as mistletoe, dodder, and the broomrapes. There are six major parasitic strategies of exploitation of animal hosts, namely parasitic castration, directly transmitted parasitism, trophically transmitted parasitism, vector-transmitted parasitism, parasitoidism, and micropredation.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
abnormalities associated with developmental and reproductive systems
Answer:
Option a, survive in extreme environments
Explanation:
Both Thermus and Deinococcus belong to the group of bacteria that are collectively termed as Deinococcus–Thermus group.
Deinococcus are radiation-resistant vegetative cell as they are able to resist ionising radiation. Also some species of Deinococcus are thermophile.
Thermus are thermophilic bacteria that are able to live in extreme temperature condition and thus are able to tolerate high temperature.
Hence, option A is correct.
