Options for the question have not been given. They are as follows:

A) parasitism

B) mutualism

C) inhibition

D) facilitation

E) commensalism

Answer:

D) facilitation

Explanation:

In ecology, facilitation is used to describe community interaction between two species in which at least one of the species is benefited. One species "facilitates" survival of another species and hence the term facilitation. They can provide facilitation by providing them refuge from predation, competition, physical stress etc.

Facilitation is broadly of two types, mutualism and commensalism. In mutualism, both the interacting organisms are benefited. In commensalism, one organism is benefited and another one is neither benefited nor harmed.

Why do primates have a longer childhood than other mammals?<br> It's not a multiple choice question
ycow [4]

Answer:

The research shows that for the cortex to evolve to be large, primates need a longer pregnancy, whereas a longer childhood is needed for a larger cerebellum to evolve. This means it is critical for infants to have the right environment to develop crucial skills.

Higher Ultra-Processed Food Consumption Is Associated with Increased Risk of Incident Coronary Artery Disease in the Atheroscler
Eddi Din [679]

Yes, it is true that Higher Ultra-Processed Food Consumption Is Associated with Increased Risk of Incident Coronary Artery Disease in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study.

Objectives:

To test the hypothesis that higher intake of ultra-processed foods is associated with higher risk of coronary artery disease.

Methods:

A total of 13,548 adults aged 45-65 y from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study were included in the analytic sample. Dietary intake data were collected through a 66-item FFQ.

Ultra-processed foods were defined using the NOVA classification, and the level of intake (servings/d) was calculated for each participant and divided into quartiles.

We used Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic splines to assess the association between quartiles of ultra-processed food intake and incident coronary artery disease.

Results:

There were 2006 incident coronary artery disease cases documented over a median follow-up of 27 y.

Incidence rates were higher in the highest quartile of ultra-processed food intake (70.8 per 10,000 person-y; 95% CI: 65.1, 77.1) compared with the lowest quartile (59.3 per 10,000 person-y; 95% CI: 54.1, 65.0).

Participants in the highest compared with lowest quartile of ultra-processed food intake had a 19% higher risk of coronary artery disease (HR: 1.19; 95% CI: 1.05, 1.35) after adjusting for sociodemographic factors and health behaviours. An approximately linear relation was observed between ultra-processed food intake and risk of coronary artery disease.

Conclusions:

Higher ultra-processed food intake was associated with a higher risk of coronary artery disease among middle-aged US adults. Further prospective studies are needed to confirm these findings and to investigate the mechanisms by which ultra-processed foods may affect health.
