eeds on its blood. Certain bacteria live in the digestive tract of humans , and their relationship is an example of (commensalism / herbivory mutualism parasitism) because the bacteria help humans to break down the food they eat. Cattle egrets eat insects off the back of an elephant, which is an example of (commensalism herbivory mutualism/ parasitism) because the cattle egrets benefit without either harming or helping the elephants.

Answer:

parasitism

mutualism

commensalism

Explanation:

Commensalism is defined as a relationship between two living organism in which one organism get benefits and the other organism neither benefit nor harm.

Herbivory is defined as the relationship between organisms and plants in which organisms consume plant material.

Mutualism is defined as the relationship between two living organism in which  both organisms benefit each other.

Parasitism is defined as the relationship between two living organism in which one organism get benefits and the other organisms get harmed.

So, a flea and dog are an example of parasitism, certain bacteria live in the digestive tract of humans is an example of mutualism, and relationship between cattle egrets and an elephant is an example of commensalism.

Hence, the correct answer is:

parasitism

mutualism

commensalism

Alleles can be described as 1. dominant 11. recessive III. codominant IV. partially dominant V. incompletely dominant O A. I, II
joja [24]

Answer:

A. I, II, III, and V only

Explanation:

In genetics, an allele refers to the specific form of a gene, which encodes traits. These alleles are usually in pairs in a diploid organism i.e. an organism with two sets of chromosomes. According to Gregor Mendel,

- An allele can either be DOMINANT when the allele masks the phenotypic expression of its allelic pair while the allele that is masked is said to be RECESSIVE.

- Two alleles can also be CO-DOMINANT when the two alleles are neither dominant or recessive over one another but are simultaneously expressed in that particular gene.

- Alleles can also be INCOMPLETELY DOMINANT when one allele is not completely dominant over the other, hence, forms a third intermediate phenotype when in combination with the second allele i.e. in an heterozygous state.

Based on this, an allele can be dominant (I), recessive (II), codominant (III), and incompletely dominant (V).
