Tropical leafcutter ants collect leaf cuttings which they transport to special underground chambers. There, the ants chew the le

aves to create nursery beds on which the ants grow a species of fungus they use for food. When ant queens disperse to establish new colonies, they carry the fungus with them, dispersing it as well (this benefits the fungus). In the ants' new nests, the fungus is at risk of being destroyed by another fungal species that is able to grow in the habitat, using the same limited resources. On their bodies, the ants carry and provide a home for bacteria that produces antibiotics the ants use to kill the newly encountered fungus and thereby protect their food supply. In this system, the relationship between the leafcutter ants and their fungal food species is:a. mutualism. b. interspecific competition. c. parasitism. d. commensalism. e. predation.

1. When during the cell cycle is a cell’s DNA replicated?
Llana [10]

Answer: The correct answers are-

1) C) S Phase

2) A) prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase.

Cell cycle corresponds to the division of cell, which occurs primarily through two phases that are - Interphase ( which has G1, S, and G2 phase) during which cell grows, duplicates its genetic material and M ( mitotic phase) phase during which cell divides.

S phase ( synthesis phase) corresponds to the duplication of the genetic material (DNA). It takes place place after G1 ( Gap 1 phase) phase.

2) Mitosis is a type of cell divison in which one parent cell divides to produce two daughter cells with same number of chromosomes. Prophase is the first phase, followed by metaphase, anpahse, and telophase.
