Answer: A. Insects lay eggs in the sloth's waste.

Commensalism is a biological interaction, in which two species lives in association, in this relationship one species gets the benefit and the other one receives neither harm nor benefit.  

The insects gets shelter in the fur of the sloth. It shows commensalism in the tropical rainforest. Instead of dropping feces (waste) directly from the tree top.  The slot come down to ground. They create a pit with their nails and discharge urine and feces. They discharge their waste weekly. Insects lay eggs on this waste. The development of insect larva takes place  in the discharged waste. The adult insects then fly up into the treetops. The insects utilize sloth body as shelter. Therefore, it is an example of commensalism where only one species is benefited that is insect species and sloth species is neither harmed nor benefited.

What RNA nitrogen bases match with the following DNA nitrogen bases?
jok3333 [9.3K]
While DNA has the ATCG nitrogenous bases, RNA replaces thymine with uracil, making its bases AUCG. So, that means that whenever DNA has adenine, instead of pairing this with thymine, RNA will use uracil instead.

Why is it difficult to classify protists? Check all that apply.
Leona [35]

Answer: Protists are a diverse collection of organisms. While exceptions exist, they are primarily microscopic and unicellular, or made up of a single cell. The cells of protists are highly organized with a nucleus and specialized cellular machinery called organelles.  

At one time, simple organisms such as amoebas and single-celled algae were classified together in a single taxonomic category: the kingdom Protista. However, the emergence of better genetic information has since led to a clearer understanding of evolutionary relationships among different groups of protists, and this classification system was rendered defunct. Understanding protists and their evolutionary history continues to be a matter of scientific discovery and discussion.

Marianne is conducting an experiment on homeostasis in paramecium, which is a type of single-felled organism. Which of these obs
Drupady [299]

Hello. You did not present the answer options, which makes it difficult for you to receive a specific answer. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

One of the most common evidences that a paramecium is maintaining homeostasis is the pumping of water from the vacuoles present in its body.

The paramecium is a protozoan that lives in aquatic environments, mainly those composed of fresh water. The problem with this environment is that water is able to enter the paramecium organism in large quantities and this can promote the disruption of the organism through lysis of the cell. In this case, homeostasis must act quickly and pump water out of the body, through the cell vacuole.

Homeostasis is a regulatory system of the organism, which must promote the balance of the organism, whenever any external or internal factor tries to harm this balance.
