Answer:

Hawk

Explanation:

Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethan which is also known as DDT is a colorless, tasteless and almost odorless crystalline chemical compound. It was originally developed as an insecticide and it causes harm to wildlife animals.

When the chemical are sprayed or gets in contact with the soil it is the terrestrial organisms such as plants and primary consumers who gets affected the most due to direct contact with the chemical.

Animals such as hawks who are arboreal and tertiary consumers from the list of options don’t get affected directly from the source of the DDT contamination which makes them least affected.

Anarel [89]

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A) symbiosis

B) ecosystem

C) community

D) population

E) biosphere

The answer is D) Population

Explanation:

Living organisms in an ecosystem are usually found in numbers living together in a given area. This is termed POPULATION in ecology. A population refers to the group of living organisms that belongs to the same species living together in the same habitat and have the ability to interbreed i.e. mate and reproduce with one another.

This is the case in this question where many sandhill cranes (large flying birds) were observed in a particular area, which represented their habitat. Asides the group of sandhill cranes living together, they were also observed to be interbreeding. This was evident in the observation of two sandhill cranes hopping up and down around their bright orange baby. This shows that members of the population are capable of mating and reproducing fertile offsprings.

This observation completes what a POPULATION is all about, hence, a population was observed.

Llana [10]

Answer:

Virus are small infectious particles which act as intracellular parasites. They are considered non-living when they are present outside their host because they show no metabolism outside.  

They do not have even cellular level of organization and are basically just packages of nucleic acid and protein. Still, virus have some important features which are common with cell-based life like the presence of nucleic acid as their genetic material.  

Apart from the presence of genetic material they also have the ability to evolve like the cell-based life. This evolution allows them to be selected naturally and produce more offspring.
