Answer:

Parasitism

Explanation:

Parasitism is a form of relationship in which one of the organism is being harmed while the other benefits. The organism being harmed is usually called the HOST while the organism that benefits is called PARASITE. Parasites often inflict certain health-related conditions on their hosts.

According to this question describing the mode of feeding of ticks, they are said to eat by taking blood from other organisms such as wallabies, lizards, echidnas and occasionally humans, which are all HOSTS.

In human hosts, this relationship with ticks can lead to symptoms such as itching, head aches and in extreme cases flu like symptoms, facial paralysis, and meat allergy etc. From the description above, it is clear that TICK has a PARASITIC RELATIONSHIP with its host as it brings only harm to them and benefits itself.

Severe reductions in the production of dopamine have been linked with:
Greeley [361]
Dopamine is a chemical that serves as a neurotransmitter that governs the transmission of signal between the neurons (brain cells) through binding to the receptors. This is also referred to "reward hormone" because this is excreted during activities that causes too much excitement or satisfaction. 

The severe reduction in this hormone is linked primarily to disease that results from the dissociation of the breakdown of this hormone. This causes muscular paralysis, tremor, slow movement. Further this causes difficulty in movement initiation. This disease described above is the Parkinson's Disease.

Answer:

Explanation:

Based on this information it can be said that this formation between the islands and the mainlands will most likely cause an increase in gene flow between the bird populations.

Was it beneficial or harmful for the Balanus barnacle to add the Chthamalus barnacle? Explain
densk [106]

Answer:

harmful. (more info below)

Explanation:

Balanus may compete with Chthamalus through crowding or smothering, but Chthamalus can inhabit higher tide levels than Balanus since it is more immune to desiccation.
