Answer:
The interaction between the sloths and the leaves they eat is an example of a<u> predator-prey</u> relationship. In this example, sloths are <u>herbivores</u> that acquire their nutrients and energy from the<u> plants</u> they eat. The colors of coral snakes provide these animals with <u>mimicry</u> to avoid predation. Specifically, their coloration helps them <u>advertise their toxicity.</u> The interaction between the hosts and the ticks that live on them can be characterized as <u>parasitism</u>, because <u>one species feeds on the other</u>.
Explanation:
Predator-prey relationships are those in which a specie feeds on another specie. The sloth is the predator that feeds on the leaves which are its prey. Herbivores feed on plants. Therefore, the sloth are rightly classified as herbivores.
Coral snakes are brightly colored with red, yellow, and black patches that warn potential predators of their toxicity. Ticks living on hosts are parasitic because the ticks feed on their host.
Answer:
B) The "lub-dub" sound originates from blood turbulence through the heart.
Explanation:
The systole and diastole in the heart produce the lub and dub sound in the heart.
The systole represents the contraction of both left and right ventricles and pumps the blood to the body and the right ventricle to the lungs. This involves the opening and closing of the valves. The closing of the atrioventricular valves produces lub sound.
At the end of the systole or ventricular contraction or when the blood has been pumped to the aorta and the pulmonary valves then the semilunar valves present in the aorta and pulmonary closes. This produces a sound dub.
Therefore,lub dub is associated with the physical contraction of the heart but not the turbulence of the blood.
Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
Answer:
A. A year of drought followed by four years of average or above-average rain
Explanation:
In the first year the Finches population goes down drastically meaning that a disaster must have occurred that would negatively affect the population, a drought. The next four years the Finch population increases steadily so the average rainfall must have been average or above average according to the graph.
