Answer:

C) predation

Explanation:

Such an insect would serve as a prey to a predator in a prey-predator relationship. Such relationship is a predation.

Predation is an act of feeding in a prey. The preys are weaker and smaller organisms which can easily be overpowered by the bigger predators.

When an insect evolves to resemble a plant twig, it is an evolutionary mimicry. Such organism that evolves must be prey. This presents the prey an evolutionary advantage for it to be evaded by the devouring predator. Mimicry is an evasive tactics.

In parasitism, one organism benefits while the other, the host, suffers from the relationship. Here, the parasite is lives inside the host. A mimicry won't apply here.

What is the inevitable result of commercialization of reproduction, which is governed by contract and the purchase of body parts
Contact [7]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The inevitable result of the commercialization of reproduction, which is governed by contract and the purchase of body parts and functions is that unfortunately, a "business of the body" has been created, many times in an irresponsibly way.

This has opened an ethical debate about the sacrality of the human body or if it is a simple or another way to do business as if you were selling auto parts, furniture, or tools.

And then, here comes religion and its point of view and perspectives. Many Americans do not agree with the idea of having a business with the human body. Most of these people think that the human body is sacred and deserves sacred treatment, not an industrial one.

So the debate in the United States society goes on, and for some, it is a new business; a very profitable one. For others, is a questionable practice that has to be regulated.

If you could choose to be either an autotroph or a heterotroph, which would you choose and why?
earnstyle [38]
Well this has to be your opinion :) but I will tell you autotrophs are organisms that can make their own food, so plants. Heterotrops are organisms that have to get their energy from another source, animals. So would you rather be a plant or animal (like you already are) and why?
