Answer:

Option A. Oxpecker birds eat parasitic ticks off the backs of zebras, is the correct statement for Mutualism.

Explanation:

Oxpecker birds is a special type of bird which feed on the parasites that are present on the surface of zebra. These parasites causes harm to the zebra. Oxpecker birds free the zebra from the parasite while the zebra provides food to the oxpecker bird and both get benefit from each other. So it is Mutualism relationship.

Feliz [49]

Answer:

1. Ends of the respiratory branches are called alveoli.

2. C. To control blood flow to different areas of the body depending on activities

Explanation:

1. The trachea divides into left and right primary bronchi which in turn divide multiple times upon entering the lungs and make the bronchial tree.

The final branches of the bronchial tree are the terminal bronchioles that lead to alveoli. The alveoli are the balloon-shaped structures and serve as the site of gas exchange between the blood and inhaled air.  

2. The opening and closing of sphincters of capillary beds regulate the direction of blood flow. The opening of sphincters allows the blood to flow into associated branches of capillary beds while closed sphincters direct the blood from arterioles to venules via thoroughfare channel.

This local change in blood flow is responsible for the autoregulation of blood flow to different tissues to match their respective metabolic demands. For example, during physical activity, more blood is directed to skeletal and cardiac muscles.

A newly discovered animal reproduces slowly. It has only one offspring each time it reproduces. Which reproductive strategy does
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

C: K Strategy

Explanation:

The best choice will be C- K strategy because this type of strategy involves greater investment from parents into their offspring. These organisms are mostly higher organisms which reproduce slowly and ensure the maximum survival of their offspring. They compete strongly with other organisms and invest more in their survival by producing fewer quality offspring that have more survival opportunities.

Example of K-selected species include  larger mammals (such as primates and horses), birds and larger plants. Unlike their opposite R-selected specie which produce large number of offspring, K selected specie are called in Equilibrium wile R-selected species are called as opportunistic.

Thank you!
