Rough-skinned newts and common garter snakes are in an "evolutionary arms race." In this phenomenon, two species continually evo

lve adaptations against one another to increase their own chance of survival. Rough-skinned newts produce tetrodotoxin, a type of poison, as a defense mechanism. Most common garter snakes have some resistance to the toxin. In areas where common garter snakes and rough-skinned newts coexist, rough-skinned newts express very high levels of tetrodotoxin, and common garter snakes have evolved a very high degree of resistance to tetrodotoxin. Based on this information, what is the most likely relationship between common garter snakes and rough-skinned newts?
A.
obligate parasitism
B.
predator and prey
C.
facultative mutualism
D.
commensalism

Answer:

The correct answer would be B. predator and prey.

Predator and prey is a type of natural relationship in which one organism kills and consume the other organism.

For example, a lion is a predator which kills and consume deer (prey).  

During the course of evolution, prey evolves various adaptations to overcome predation and increases its survival rate.

In addition, a predator also evolves to increase its success rate in predation.

Similarly, rough-skinned newts (prey) evolve to produce poison as a defense mechanism and greater snakes (predator) evolve resistance against that poison to increase its survival rates.

Rodents and primates.

Explanation:

Given diagram represents a phylogenetic tree, which shows evolutionary relationships between organisms. The nodes in the tree denotes the ancestral lineage, while the tips of its branches denotes descendants evolved from that ancestor.

According to given tree, rodents and primates share most common recent ancestor as these branches are evolved from a common node and so, they are most closely related organisms.

A feature in the early hominid was her apelike shoulders and forelimbs, but a pelvis that indicated that most of her body weight
oee [108]
Lucy and Upright Human are out because of the most body weight above the pelvis would make it hard to walk upright. 
Im going to say it is Wise Human, as similar features would indicate a common ancestor and similar structure does not mean same capabilities with tools, that would have more to do with the size of the brain case. 
So i am going to say the answer is Wise Human.

Give me seven facts about biospheres
abruzzese [7]
The sum of and interaction between all living beings.<span>The biosphere is the global ecological system integrating all living organisms and their relationships. The interaction with the elements of the lithosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere is also included. The biosphere, we know today, has evolved for 3.5 billion years.</span>The biosphere covers most of the planet and stretches from the deep ocean to the highest mountain tops. Microorganisms also live deep beneath the surface of the Earth.The biosphere is divided into different biomes. Each of these consist of species that are related in their ability to cope with a specific climate. Biomes are separated by latitude. Arctic and Antacrtic biomes are vastly different from tropical biomes, for example.<span>Climate change influences the distribution of these biomes and to some extent displaces them.</span><span>The biosphere is an important reservoir in the carbon cycle and has a very significant impact on climate through release and removal of CO2 from the atmosphere.</span>
