A gut with 4 stomachs would be the one. This is often found in animals that feed on grass and other plants and need 4 stomachs to be able to process the food.

Grazing animals like cattle, goat and deer are common in grassland. These animals are called the ruminants which are the herbivores with diet consisting of eating large amounts of roughage or the fiber. They have evolved digestive system to digest the bulky cellulose. The adaptation in them is the presence of the multi-chambered stomach. There are four compartments in the stomach of these animals called the rumen, reticulum, omasum and the abomasum. This provides larger space and contains microbes aiding the digestion of cellulose. The abomasum is the true stomach equivalent to the monogastric stomach chamber where gastric juices are secreted.

An insect that has evolved to resemble a plant twig will probably be able to avoid A) parasitism. B) symbiosis. C) predation. D)

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

C) predation

Explanation:

Such an insect would serve as a prey to a predator in a prey-predator relationship. Such relationship is a predation.

Predation is an act of feeding in a prey. The preys are weaker and smaller organisms which can easily be overpowered by the bigger predators.

When an insect evolves to resemble a plant twig, it is an evolutionary mimicry. Such organism that evolves must be prey. This presents the prey an evolutionary advantage for it to be evaded by the devouring predator. Mimicry is an evasive tactics.

In parasitism, one organism benefits while the other, the host, suffers from the relationship. Here, the parasite is lives inside the host. A mimicry won't apply here.

When considering an RBC histogram, what can cause an elevation in the left side of the curve?

stepladder [879]

Answer:

Low mean corpuscular value can shift the curve to the left side.

Explanation:

RBC histogram may be defined as the process of plotting the number of blood cells on Y- axis and their relative size on X- axis. Modern automated haematology is used for the construction of RBC histogram.

The cell population of RBCs is similar in size but not equal to the size of RBC the curve can shift to either direction. The low MCV (mean corpuscular value) value can shift the the curve to the left side while considering an RBC histogram.

What factor would result in an increased mortality in a population due to increased competition for water?

inn [45]

Mortality, or death rate is a measure of the number of deaths in a particular population, scaled to the size of that population, per unit of the time. In this case a factor that would result to an increased mortality rate in a population due to increased competition of water will be the density-dependent factor.
