Answer: The correct answer is C) Community stability.

Keystone species is an individual species or a group of species of plants and animals, which play a significant role in maintaining the structure of community and the functioning of ecosystem.

This means that when these species are removed from an ecosystem, they will result in the dramatic changes in the structure and functioning of the ecosystem.

Example- In terrestrial habitats, fire ants behaves like a keystone species ( a predator keystone species) that suppresses the number of individuals and species of arthropods, which could have harmful effects in the agriculture.

Professional gardeners often soak seeds in hydrogen peroxide before planting them in order to increase the germination percentage or to reduce germination failure. When the seeds are soaked in hydrogen peroxide, the seed coat becomes soft and enzymes present in the seed becomes active. Due to soaking of seeds, the seed takes less time to germinate.

Cattle depend on microorganisms in their digestive tract to digest the cellulose in their diets. The cattle and the microorganis

GaryK [48]

<h2>The correct answer is: Mutualism.</h2>

Explanation:

Mutualism can be defined as a type of symbiotic relationship.
Symbiosis can be defined as the type of ecological interplay in between two species localized in the same habitat in which at least one of the species gets benefited in the form of food, shelter or protection due to the interaction.
Mutualism is a type of positive symbiosis in which both the species involved in the ecological interplay benefits due to the interaction in between them.
In the given question, some micro-organisms survive in the digestive tract of the cattle.
These micro-organisms produce the enzyme, cellulase, which helps in digesting cellulose present in the food consumed by the cattle.
The cattle is incapable of producing this cellulase enzyme by itself and is dependent on the micro-organisms for its synthesis.
Hence, the the micro-organisms help the cattle in obtaining nutrition and energy by the digestion of cellulose.
On the other hand, the micro-organisms get shelter, nutrition and protection in the gut of the cattle.

Explanation:

habituation involves the complete elimination of a particular response (i.e, zero frequency of occurrence). If the stimulus cintinues to be presented for an additional number of trials, then, although no further changes occur, the response will exhibit lower levels of recovery (e.g, spontaneous recovery is reduced) as if the response would have fallen below a zero frequency.
