Answer:

Parasitism, predation, and commensalism, all three are common as only one species is benefited in process.

Explanation:

Parasitism is the symbiotic relationship in which one species benefits while other is harmed. Benefited species refers to parasites while harmed species known as the host.

Predation is the interaction of two same or different species where one kill or eat other, here also only one benefits.

Commensalism is a symbiotic relationship of two species where one benefits while other is unaffected.

Thus, parasitism, predation, and commensalism, all three are common as only one species is benefited in process.

Symbiosis is the ecological relationship between two or more organisms living closely together with some form of feeding relationship involved. The three main symbiotic relationships are: - Mutualism, where both organisms benefit. - Commensalism, where one organism benefits while the other organism is not harmed. All of them thrive off of the other organism.

To calibrate the x-axis for 14C decay, you have to convert half-lives to number of years. Recall that 14C has a single half-life

hjlf

Answer:

d. 28,650 years

Explanation:

Since 14C has a single half-life of 5,730 years

The number of years that is going to make up 5 half-lives for 14C will be;

5,730 years × 5 = 28,650 years

DDT is an insecticide that was used extensively in the mid-1900s to kill mosquitoes. It was very effective at first, but after a

dlinn [17]

Insect populations can develop resistance to insecticides over time. The evolution of resistance is associated with an increase in the frequency of adaptive genes in the population.

In the case above described it is expected that a few mosquitoes in the population were resistant to DDT before it was ever used (Option a is correct).

Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) is a pesticide used in agriculture.

After exposure to DDT, those individuals in the mosquito population that didn't carry gene variants (i.e., alleles) associated with the resistance to this pesticide died.

Subsequently, insects having adaptive alleles associated with DDT resistance survived and reproduced, thereby increasing the frequency of adaptive genes/alleles in the population.
