Answer: D. They act to break down the protective barriers around the egg, allowing the sperm.

Explanation:

Acrosin and other protease enzymes functions by the catalyzing the proteolysis, that is the breakdown of proteins into small polypeptides by cleaving the peptide bonds within the proteins by the process of hydrolysis.

The acrosine and other protease enzymes are released by the acrosome cap of the spermatozoa. This process facilitates the enzymatic digestion of zona pellucida layer of the egg. This helps in the penetration of egg by the sperm.

Resource partitioning results in: a move from the realized niche to the fundamental niche for both species. individuals of each
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

a move from the fundamental niche to the realized niche for both species.

Explanation:

The niche of an organism is the functional role of the organism in the community or the ecosystem as a whole. This include the environment an organism lives and all the jobs it does in it.

Fundamental niche refers to all the possible functional roles of an organism in an ecosystem while realized niche refers to the specific roles the organism is limited to as a result of resource limitation, competition or other factors.

Resource partitioning involves the division of limited resources among organisms so as to avoid competition within the niche.

<em>Hence, resource partitioning causes a move from the fundamental niche of an organism to the realized  niche of that organism. </em>
