Answer:

B. Endoparasitism

Explanation:

Living organisms tend to interact with one another in an ecosystem. In ecology, the interaction between two organisms is referred to as SYMBIOSIS. Symbiosis includes different types depending on how beneficial or harmful the relationship is.

One of the symbiotic relationships that occurs in an ecosystem is PARASITISM. Parasitism is the relationship between two organisms in which one organism benefits and the other is harmed due to the actions of the first organism. The organism that benefits is called the PARASITE while the harmed organism is called the HOST.

In this question, the eggs of the marine invertebrate develops in the body of the fish. The developing marine invertebrate feeds on the fish's body in order to derive nourishment. The fish gradually loses nutrients and dies as this prolongs. Hence, the marine invertebrate is benefitting at the expense of the fish. Therefore, the marine invertebrate is a Parasite feeding on a fish host. This makes this kind of relationship PARASITISM. However, since the invertebrate's egg lives and develops INSIDE the fish (host), the relationship is specifically called ENDOPARASITISM.

Answer:

About 100 times more than other planets.

Explanation:

The Sun would be about 100 times bigger than the earth planet in the scaled-down model of the solar system because in the reality the size of sun is 109 times more than the earth so making a model more perfect and nearer to reality we have to maintain the diameter of the sun more than 100 times than the earth and other planets.

A key intermediate in the catabolism of fatty acids with uneven numbers of carbon atoms is
enyata [817]

Answer: Propionly CoA

Explanation:

During oxidation of odd chain fatty acids, the odd chain are oxidized exactly in the same manner as even chains. However, after successive removal of 2 carbon units, at the end, one 3-carbon unit, propionyl CoA is formed.

Propionyl CoA is a product of beta oxidation of odd chain fatty acids.

In three steps reaction propionyl-CoA can be converted to succinyl-CoA, an intermediate of the citric acid cycle which is converted to oxaloacetate, and is used for gluconeogenesis.
