Answer:

The relationship between the ants and ant lions is an example of predator-prey co-evolution.

Explanation:

Co-evolution refers to cases where two (or more) species reciprocally affect each other's evolution. Co-evolution is likely to happen when different species have close ecological interactions with one another. These ecological relationships include: predator/prey and parasite/host. The  ecological  relationship between pit-digging larval ant lions and their common prey, ants, is an example of how the specific ecological niche that species inhabit imposes selection pressures leading to specific behavioral adaptations. Ant lions rely on multiple strategies to capture prey with a minimal expenditure of energy and extraordinary efficiency while ants employ several different strategies for avoiding capture, including rescue of trapped nestmates.

Essay Frankenstein predictions
atroni [7]

Answer:

The monster in Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein lurches into life as big as a man but as ignorant as a newborn. He can’t read, speak, or understand the rudiments of human interaction. When he stumbles upon the cottagers, however, he picks up language by observing them and studying their speech. It is this acquisition of language, along with the eloquence it brings, that turns the monster from a mysterious nightmare into a sympathetic and tragic figure. By showing how language transforms the monster, and by contrasting the well-spoken monster with his equally articulate creator, Shelley argues that verbal communication—rather than action or appearance—is the only way through which people can truly understand one another.

DNA is synthesized in the middle part of Interphase, which is usually denoted S in the series G1 - S - G2  </span><span>"There are 3 stages of interphase: G1 in which the cell grows and functions normally. Once it grows too large it enters the synthesis (S) phase. In S phase the cell makes exact copies of its DNA.
