Due to resource partitioning, zebra relative density changes over time and grass height.
<h3>What is resource partitioning?</h3>
- Resource partitioning is the process by which due to natural selection, competing species use different resources and niches.
- In the case of African savanna, right after peak rain all the three grazers (zebra, wildebeest, and Thomson’s gazelle) have high density.
- After rain in one month relative density of zebras is maximum but it becomes nearly zero after three months due to high density of wildebeest and then increases a little after six months.
- The density of zebras is greatest when the grass is tallest and most abundant because of resource partitioning as zebras get the most out of eating tall grass.
- Zebras can eat and digest faster taller grasses with many stems.
- This gives them an advantage over other grazers in terms of nutrition when the grass is tall.

Answer: temperature
Pasteur is also credited with the process of pasteurization which removes pathogens from consumable liquids, reducing temperature and subsequent illness.
Explanation:
Pasteurization involves treatment of a consumable food with
- heat to destroy the cells of disease-causing pathogens
- followed by immediate cooling (reducing temperature) to limit growth of the surviving cells and germination of spores.
I think that the answer would be C
Answer: By Hormonal action and Nervous coordination
Explanation:
Hormones are substances produced by one tissue and conveyed by the bloodstream to another to effect physiological activity. Homeostasis is the maintenance of a stable internal environment in the body.
Body systems such as digestive, circulatory, excretory systems etc, all are coordinated to achieve a STABLE INTERNAL ENVIRONMENT by the aid of HORMONES AND/OR NERVOUS COORDINATION.
For Example: the vasodilation of blood vessels during hot weather, and the opposite action of vasoconstriction during cold weather are both controlled by Hormonal action and nervous coordination which leads to a stable body temperature preventing excess heat accumulation.
Also, Nervous system controls the body systems, such that the muscle contractions are joined to actions like sweating, breathing, respiration etc
So, to maintain homeostasis hormonal action and Nervous coordination is necessary.
