Answer:

The correct answer is option D. "preservation of wetlands".

Explanation:

Wetland are areas of lands that are saturated with water, usually comprised by marshes or swamps. Preservation of wetlands help to reduce the risk of floods because wetlands temporarily store and slow the release of stormwater. It has been reported that areas where wetland have been lost, the chances of flood increases by as much as 80 percent. The government of a flood-prone region would likely reduce the risk of floods by preserving its wetlands.

Due to defective genes, there is an abnormal electrolyte transport system develops in which cells of the respiratory system including the lungs absorb an excessive amount of salt (sodium) and water.

Most biologists believe that _____.
MissTica

The right answer is C.

Classically positive interactions or facilitators between species are divided into two broad categories:

- those where the two partners involved benefit from each other: the mutualisms (symbolized by + / +)

- those where one of the two partners makes a profit or an advantage while the other gets nothing from it without being affected negatively: it is the commensalism symbolized by + / 0.


It may be that bacterial commensalism has an interest in its host (the animal) in the sense that it protects against parasites, or on the contrary, it favors their appearance.
