The answer is commensalism because commensalism is a relationship where an organism is benefitted and the other is neither benefitted nor harmed. The barnacle is being benefited and the whale is not being benefited or harmed.

Answer:

<u>Options-(A):</u> Commensalism.

Explanation:

As the barnacles are found on the skin of the whales, being attached to the mammal makes it easy for the barnacles to have more food and nutritional resources to live inside water. While, there is no benefit for the whales during such conditions as the barnacles nor provide nourishment to the specie nor it helps the whale to defend itself against any type of harm.Such relation between any two organisms is then termed as the commensalism by the professionals or we can say by the scientists who study such organisms.

Which statement is false?
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Once you reach adulthood, you will not experience peer pressure.

Explanation:

We tend to believe that self-control comes from within, but many of our attitudes depend as much on friends and family as on ourselves. That's because at any stage of our life (even the adult stage) our friends and our family have the power to influence us, sometimes that influence is good and sometimes bad, it's up to us to reason about them.

The people around us have the power to make us fat, consume more alcohol, worry less about the environment and expose ourselves to the sun without proper protection, among many other things.

It is not simply about peer pressure, where you deliberately act in a certain way to suit the group. It is, in fact, largely an unconscious attitude. Without your awareness, your brain is constantly picking up cues from people around you to dictate your behavior. And the consequences can be serious.

How can we protect space shuttles or astronauts from space radiation in the absence of the atmospheric layer?
Arisa [49]
Earth's protective magnetic bubble, called the magnetosphere, deflects most solar particles, but in the absence of atmospheric layer, Polyethylene is a good shielding material because it has high hydrogen content, and hydrogen atoms are good at absorbing and dispersing radiation.

The Earth’s atmospheres are kept in place by gravity. The air near the ground is pulled on by gravity and compressed by the air higher in the sky. This causes the air near the ground to be denser and creating different layers with different qualities in which are the atmosphere.

Hope that helps ^^
