In the autumn, many birds will collect seeds and then hide them in various caches throughout their habitat. The birds will guard

their caches from other birds, and move the caches if they start to dry out. These caches provide a food source for the birds during the winter. What is an abiotic factor that contributed to the evolution of this set of behaviors?

Answer:

The correct answer is low temperature.

Explanation:

Abiotic factors are the non-living parts of the environment which directly influences the living organisms along with its ecosystem. They are mostly physical factors which can be easily identified like temperature, moisture, sunlight, soil type, water, sunlight and many more.

According to the given condition in which a bird do "caching" that is collecting and storing hundreds of seeds in a different location during bad weather condition which helps in the survival of the bird.  

Since the bad weather condition, in this case, is cold winter season affecting the behavior of the bird therefore, the abiotic factor is low temperature.

The key to the evolution of altruism is that a. recipients have to be more likely to carry the altruistic allele than nonrecipie
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is b. actors have to be more likely to carry the altruistic allele than non actors.

Explanation:

Altruism is the behavior by an organism that benefits other organisms by costing its own fitness. The actor is the individual who is doing altruism and the recipient is the individual who is getting benefited by the actor's altruism.

An example of altruistic behavior can be seen in animal kingdom easily. Vampire bats give blood to those members of the community who were not able to go for search for blood show altruistic behavior.

Actors have altruistic genes that suggest them to behave altruistically. Non-actors may not contain alleles of altruism but the recipient might have altruistic alleles.

Hamilton's rule says that natural selection will favor the altruistic allele when rb > c.

where r = coefficient of relatedness between donor and recipient

          b = benefit received by recipient and

          c = cost paid by altruist.

Therefore, the correct answer is b.
