The relationship between  the  hermit crabs and the snails  is  A.commensalism

Why? Commensalism refers to a relationship where one organism benefits  from the other without  affecting it. In this case, the hermit crab benefits from the  snails, via the latter's discarded shells. The crab's use of the  snails' shells has no impact on the  snails.

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Principle of cross-cutting relationships

Explanation:

The geologic principle that will provide the most profound explanation to this problem is the principle of cross-cutting relationships.

It states that "features that cross-cuts rocks are younger than the layer they cut through".

Some of these features are intrusions, faults and joints.

The logic behind this reasoning is that without the rock in place, the cross-cutting event wouldn't have been recorded.

We can liken this to a fracture on the wall of a building. If the wall is not erected, there wouldn't be any fracture. Therefore, the fracture is far younger than the wall.

All of the following adaptations could lead an organism to be successful
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

OB) An elephant in the savannah develops without the ability to hear. A salamander living in a cave is born without, eyesight or fully developed eyes.

Explanation:

Adaptations are gradual modifications and changes in the physical characteristics or behavior of an organism, so that it could facilitate the survival of the organism in that particular environment.

In case of elephant without ability to hear specially in the regions of Savannah where there is vast grasslands with scanty vegetation and animals, then the elephant can't hear any sound of danger like approaching calamities, also it could hear the call of other elephants, in case if the elephant becomes segregated.

In salamander, low eyesight or low vision will further add to the misery, as there is already darkness in the cave. It could fall prey to any predator or it could not be able to feed on consumable organisms as it could see properly.
