Answer:
Ecology is defined as the scientific study of the complex interactions between organisms, and the environment of the earth. Ecologists study, and examine the features of biotic and abiotic factors of the environment.
Abiotic factors include non-living factors, the physical, and chemical attributes, for example light, water, temperature, and nutrients which helps to influence the abundance, and distribution of organisms.
Biotic factors include living factors, the other organisms which are part of a separate environment, similarly influence the abundance and distribution of life present on Earth.
Answer:
d) It is beneficial to the whole species, but not to all of the individual members.
Explanation:
This form of behavior raises the fitness of all the species at the expenses of each member.
Each member of the species performs altruistic behavior towards the queen and her progenies as it assist in creating of her nest to increase their generation numbers. Take for example, The workers do more of nurturing of the queen offspring instead of laying their own eggs. This altruistic behavior of workers promotes the further population of their species at the expense of them producing their own offsprings.

Here is the complete question:
Some species of wasps are social. The queen starts a colony from scratch each spring. She builds a small nest, and lays and raises a group of female workers. The workers enlarge the nest while the queen continues to lay eggs. Unfertilized eggs become males that mate with newly hatched females. All of the wasps except the newly fertilized females die by the summer.
Which best describes this behavior?
a)It is beneficial only to the males that do not fertilize eggs.
b)It is beneficial only to the female workers that are not fertilized.
c)It is beneficial to each one of the individual colony members.
d)It is beneficial to the whole species, but not to all of the individual members.
Answer:
e. spores
Explanation:
In the given question, the characteristics of a plant are mentioned which are the dominant sporophyte, cell wall and the Chl a or b.
It is mentioned that the plant has a dominant sporophyte therefore it produces the spores during its life cycle. The other features like the endosperm, seeds, flowers are the characteristics on the basis of which the plant can be characterised as they differ in the plants.
Since the production of spores is a characteristic feature of the sporophyte, therefore, it will be least considered by the botanist to discover a new species.
Thus, Option-E is the correct answer.
Meiosis since they are sex cells just look at the letter e and put s in top and x bottom and that is how you know
