Answer:
In all different levels of the food webs and food chains, it is seen that damaged members of the prey have become easy food for the predators.
Explanation:
Preys can identify the other members of their species are injured or wounded or fed by the predators by their body fluid in as if a predator eats the prey the blood or other body fluid releases. These fluids or blood help individual prey species to be aware of the predator as they recognize that their species member is wounded or consumed by there olfactory receptors.
There are several other chemicals cue that is species specif that are released by the prey to alarm the other species member by injured or dead members.
Thus, the correct answer is - In all different levels of the food webs and food chains it is seen that damaged members of the prey have become easy food for the predators.
Answer:
(A) speciation.
Explanation:
Shrinking of water bodies and development of deserts since the Pleistocene ice age produced new vacant niches that could be inhabited by organisms such as fishes. Production of new isolated streams, ponds, and springs allowed the fishes to occupy these new water bodies. Accumulation of genetic variations to become adapted to their new habitat resulted in the evolution of several new species of fishes with many different genetic traits. This represents speciation due to geographical isolation.
