Answer: Mutualism

Explanation:

Mutualism is a biological interaction, between individuals of different species, where both benefit and improve their biological fitness. Similar actions that occur between members of the same species are called cooperation. <u>Mutualism differs from other interactions in which one species benefits at the expense of another or other species; these are cases of exploitation, such as parasitism, predation, etc. </u>

So, mutualism is a way of life in which two species that could live independently come together permanently or sporadically and each puts in some effort for the survival of both. Generally a species that is the strongest or has the most defensive resources, is the one that protects the weakest and this one "pays" it with some skill or habit that is beneficial for the other. <u>In this case, the buffalo in some way helps the birds to get insects to feed. And as "pay", the birds warn the buffalo when predators are nearby.</u>

In stressful situations, the sympathetic nervous system ________ the arteries of the circulatory system and ________ the pupils
sukhopar [10]
The correct terms to fill in the blanks would be contracts and dilates. In stressful situations, the sympathetic nervous system contracts the arteries of the circulatory system resulting to the dilation of the pupils of the eyes. Also, during these situations, the blood sugar levels are raised since the hormones for stress kick in to combat the stress which in turn raises the blood sugar.

Hi,

Let us get an introduction of the problem first, Incomplete dominance is a pattern of inheritance in which, offspring from the cross of two parents shows a phenotype that is not like either parent but in between both.

For example: Let us take the example of Oompah's hair that can be either red or purple or blue. As described in the question, Red is dominant so let us denote allele for Red hair with R. The other hair color is blue that is recessive, let us denote its allele with r. Now, there is another intermediate phenotype that is purple, let us denote it with Rr because it is derived through a combination of R and r.

Now, here is the key for all possible genotypes and phenotypes of Oompahs. There are only three possible genotypes and phenotypes for the hair color.

Genotype: Phenotype

RR             : Red hair

Rr              : purple hair

rr                : Blue hair

This is because no allele can fully express itself over the other. So is we cross a red hair Oompah with Blue hair Oompah, let us see what will happen:

                                                  RR x rr

Gametes:                              r        and        R

                                       rr:     Rr :     Rr     :  RR

It means that 25 % of the offspring will have red hair, 50% will have contain purple hair and 25 % will have blue hair.

RR:              Red hair      25%

Rr:               Purple hair   50 %

rr:                 Blue hair     25%

Hope it helps!
