This is an effective strategy because different phases do not compete for food.
For example for the case of Jelly fish, After a brief period floating about in surface waters like planktons, the  larvae then settles to the sea floor, attaching themselves to one end. They then develop to polyps and begin to feed and grow. In spring the polyps bud iff immature jellyfish known as ephyra larvae which then grow to mature jellyfish.

Answer:

Horizontal gene transfer

Explanation:

Horizontal gene transfer or lateral gene transfer is when an organisms of different species can acquire a gene from a different one. This process is well understood in bacteria and is responsible for the appearence of antibiotic resistant bacteria. Bacteria can take DNA fragments through a process known as transformation, but this is less common in eukaryotes. Gene transfer agents like viruses could carry the gene from one specimen to the other. Another way could be Horizontal transposon transfer but the exact mechanisms behind it are still under research.

10. What do we call the action when one muscle works against another muscle?
Kisachek [45]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Antagonistic.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>
  • Muscles generally work in groups or pairs.
  • Muscles are connected to bones via tendons, these tendons and muscles help in movement of a joint.
  • When a muscle is put in contraction, usually only one bone moves.  For example on contraction of biceps of the arm contracts then the radius moves but the scapula does not move.
  • This type of muscle action is called antagonistic muscle action. In which the muscle which is working is called the prime mover or agonist and the relaxing muscle is called the antagonist.  

Result: The muscle action in which a muscle works against another muscle is called antagonistic.
