In addition to vocalization, how would a mother sea lion locate her pup

Biology

Answer:

In addition to vocalization, a mother sea lion locate her pup using a variety of behavioral signals such as moving inside their colony, returning to a familiar location within the colony where she frequented to feed her pup, visual cues and olfactory cues like smelling the approaching pups.

Explanation:

Sea Lions belong to the scientific order Pinnipedia and the family Otariidae.  They can walk on all fours on land by rotating their pelvic girdle under their body and also use their front flippers to move in the water. During their breeding and pupping (birthing) time, they gather in groups called rookeries. They can communicate through vocalizations (barks, growls, and grunts) both on land and in water.

After the return of mother sea lions to the rookery from their searching for food (foraging), the mother-pup pairs identify and locate each other through the exchange of vocalizations. In addition to vocalization, the mothers often return to a home spot (familiar location within their colony where a female frequented to feed her pup), move inside the colony and also use visual and olfactory cues like smelling the approaching pups to correctly identify their pup. Also, the return of the mother to a familiar home spot provides the pup with spatial and geographical memory cues.

Answer:

Avirulent.

Explanation:

VIRULENCE is the ability of a pathogenic organism  to infects the host, leading to damages  or death of the host. The extent of these virulent effect depends on  certain chemical substances ( called Virulence factors) produced during the  pathogenic processes.

The virulence effects  is achieved  due to the ability of the virulent factor to disrupt the entire physiological mechanisms of  the organisms; e,g crop plants; though  suppression of the host immune response, disruptions of the immune mechanisms, colonization of the host DNA structure etc. Therefore the pathogenic effects suppressed the host resistance and spread throughout the host body system.

In this present scenario, the pathogenic effect of the likable bacteria; is not virulent, because

none of the d crop pant is completely diseased.

the nascent intenodes and leaves  are growing to usual size.

Consequently, the physiological and the morphological features of the crop plants are still intact. Thus the infection is AVIRULENT.
