A parasitic organism is one that benefits from its host, but doesn't benefit the host, in fact, it has negative effects to the host.

In this case, we have 4 examples of worms, and we're supposed to find the parasitic one. And, I think this is something we can do without having to go deep into the subject, because at first sight, we can distinguish a worm, that we all know isn't paricularly good - leeches.

→ Leeches are an example of parasitic annelides that live in high-humidity environments, and live partly from the blood they suck from animals and sometimes humans.

Hope it helped,

Anettt [7]

Scientists found that the first living things were likely prokaryotic because eukaryotic are evolved from the prokaryotic only.

<h3>What do you mean by Natural selection?</h3>

Natural selection may be defined as favorable variations that assist the organisms to survive and reproduce in a particular habitat.

Individuals that are better suited to their environment are likely to have more offspring and pass their genetic material on to future generations. This theory is referred to as Natural selection.

Scientists hypothesize that oxygen began to accumulate in the Earth's atmosphere after the appearance of living things with the ability to Photosynthesize.

What is a positive and negative impact?<br><br> (Giving brainliest)
12345 [234]

Answer:

Positive affect" refers to one’s propensity to experience positive emotions and interact with others and with life’s challenges in a positive way. Conversely, "negative affect" involves experiencing the world in a more negative way, feeling negative emotions and more negativity in relationships and surroundings.

These two states are independent of one another, though related; someone can be high in positive and negative affect, high in just one, or low in both. Both states affect our lives in many ways, particularly when it comes to stress and how we handle it.
