Understanding types of symbiosis Interspecific interactions can be categorized by whether each species in the interaction benefi

ts, is harmed, or is neither helped nor harmed. Competition is a –/– interaction, meaning that it has a negative effect on both species. Mutualism, parasitism, and commensalism are types of interspecific interactions in which at least one species benefits. Three examples of symbiosis are epiphytic orchids and trees, hookworms and humans, and bees and flowers.
Epiphytic orchids are plants that live on the branches or trunks of trees. The trees supply the orchids with space, and the orchids (which are autotrophs) do not appear to affect the tree. Human hookworms live in human intestines and eat blood. Bees pollinate flowers while gathering nectar. Categorize mutualism, parasitism, and commensalism as either +/–, +/0, or +/+. Also select the correct definition and example for each interaction. Drag the labels to their appropriate locations on the table. Use blue labels for the blue targets, pink labels for the pink targets, and white labels for the white targets.

Answer:

a. parasitism:

The parasite benefits by harming the host e.g hookworms and humans

b. commensalism

In this association, one species benefits while the other is unaffected (its not harm and dies not benefit) e.g. epiphytic orchids and trees

c. mutualism

Here, both species benefit as seen in rumen bacteria and cows

Explanation:

Parasitism = +/- relationship

The predator benefits by harming the host. E.g. hookworms and humans. The hookworm (parasite) eat man blood while man (host) loses blood to it.

Commensalism = +/0 relationship

One specie(s) benefits while the other specie(s) neither benefits nor is harmed. E.g. epiphytic orchids live on tree branches or tree trunks as it's habitat or shelter while the trees neither benefits nor is harmed

Mutualism = +/+ relationship

Both organisms benefit in this relationship. E.g. rumen microbes aids grass digestion in cows, while the microbes benefit as it obtain steady food or nutrient from the cow

Evgen [1.6K]

The answer is C. In order to balance this equation you have to look at the 2AlCl3. The first Cl2 needs to equal 6 because 2x3=6. So the answer is 3.

Which value is being measured in the columns labeled fraction remaining and percentage remaining
ahrayia [7]

<u>Question</u>:

Which value is being measured in the columns labeled "Fraction remaining” and "Percentage remaining”?

  1. years of decay
  2. quantity of energy
  3. number of stable atoms
  4. amount of material that has not decayed

<u>Answer</u>:

"Amount of material that has not decayed" being measured in the columns labelled "Fraction remaining” and "Percentage remaining”

<u>Explanation</u>:

The table shown below having explains about the half life , the  amount of sample in both fraction and percentage. The first column named half life elapsed tells  us the the number of half life that that is completed. Half life is the time taken for an element to reduce or decay into half of its initial amount.

The fraction remaining column gives the amount of sample that is left behind  after the half life particular number of half life has completed.  similarly the percentage remaining column gives the amount of sample in percentage. For example, the 5th row tells us that after 4 half life is over \frac{1}{16} th of the sample remained. In percentage it is 6.25%
