Answer:
You, a human being and a pet share a mutualistic relationship. A mutualistic relationship is a relationship in which two different species of organisms benefit each other. You and your pet have a mutualistic relationship because a pet provides companionship, comfort, in some cases protection (depending on the pet), and protecting your home from rodents (also depending on the pet). While animals provide these services for humans, in return we provide food, water, shelter, and love/comfort for the animal. Both organisms (you and your pet) benefit from your relationship therefore it is mutualistic.
Answer:
b. typify a population in which all ages have an equal chance of surviving. → YES
e. are typical of annual plants → YES
Explanation:
Different species have survival curves differently shaped. In general terms, there are three different survival curves.
- Type I. Mortality often occurs at the end of the cycle, representing species with low mortality. Organisms exhibiting this type of survivorship curve have long cycles of life and high probabilities to survive until they are old enough. These species have few descendants and spend too much time and energy in parental care to ensure their reproductive success.
- Type II. The probabilities of dying are equals all along the cycle, at any age interval. The number of dead individuals remains constant from the beginning to the end of the life cycle. These species have reduced offsprings, and they ensure their reproductive success by providing some significant parental care.
- Type III. Significant mortality during the early stages of life. Only a few individuals reach the later life stages, getting to survive their first period of life. Survivors usually have a long life. These species produce big offsprings at the same time, but they provide little or no parental care. Their reproductive success relies on the number of descendants.
Type II survivorship curves:
a. are characteristic of humans and elephants → No, this is Type I curve
b. typify a population in which all ages have an equal chance of surviving. → YES
c. indicate a high mortality rate in the very young. → No, this is Type III curve
d. show that very few young are produced, that each is given parental support, and that most individuals live a relatively long life and die of old age. → No, this is Type I curve
e. are typical of annual plants → YES
Feed-forward is used to describe the action of muscles.
<h3>What is Feed-Forward in the body?</h3>
- In physiology, a feed-forward homeostatic control system (also called a feed-forward homeostatic control system) enables the system to predict changes in regulatory variables.
- It predicts changes by virtue of the predictive effect of one intermediate on another further down the signaling pathway.
- Feed-forward or anticipatory control mechanisms permit the body to predict a change in the physiology of the organism and initiate a response that can reduce the movement of a regulated variable out of its normal range (7, 23).
- Impairments are measured and taken into account before they affect the system.
- In the house example, a feed-forward system could sense when a door is open and automatically turn on the heating before the house gets too cold.

Answer:
The answer is single replacement :)
Cane Toads are very strong and adaptable, they are also poisonous throughout its life cycle, which is why they only have a few predators and have a life span of 10-15 years. Cane toads have poison glands, and the tadpoles are extremely toxic to most animals if consumed. They are productive breeders, they only need a small pool of water of almost any nature. The female cane toads can lay 8,000 to 35,000 eggs at a time and may produce two clutches in one year. The eggs will hatch within 24-72 hours and the tadpole stage may last from three to twenty weeks. Cane toads in the tropics grow really quick and may be sexually mature only within one year. Cane toads have been introduced to many regions of the Pacific and the Caribbean islands as a method of agricultural pest control because of their ravenous appetite, however, they are now considered pests and are dangerous to humans and animals, both wild and domesticated especially to dogs.
