Birds cause seed dispersal as they pick seeds from parent plant and drop them in other places. Seeds of mistletoe are sticky or viscous due to mucus and they provide nutritious food to the birds.

Hence, it can be concluded that the mistletoe seeds show adaptations primarily for seed dispersion, not for infecting the host plant.

Thus, the correct answer to be filled in the blank is 'is nutritious to the dispersing birds.'

If someone adds millions of small fish to a lake , how would the number of big fish change?

If the big fish and small fish have the same type of food, then that means that the big fish, hypothetically, would have millions of new contenders for their food source. That means that it's very likely that many of those big fish would die out.
