Answer: No

Explanation:

Mutualism is a kind of symbiotic relationship when two species lives in close association with each other to complete their life cycle. In this relationship both the species receives the benefit of association.

The given situation is not an example of mutualism this is because of the fact that in the association with the microbes the plants are more fit but the situation does not describe the fact that the microbe is also getting any benefit of association.

If the outside temperature decreases by 20 degrees Celsius, what will happen to a reptile’s body temperature?
oksian1 [2.3K]

The reptile's body temperature rises when the external temperature rises. When the temperature drops, so does his body temperature. If a reptile feels cold because the external temperatures have made his blood cold, he'll lie in the sun to warm up. However, if the external temperature is too high, he scurries under a rock, dives in a pool or finds some kind of shade where he can cool down. Reptiles and other animals with ectothermic systems are vulnerable to extreme changes in temperature because they can't control their temperatures internally. They can control their body temperatures only by moving to an environment with a suitable ambient temperature.

Answer:

RANDOM MATING

Explanation:

random mating

The Hardy Weinberg principle of genetic equilibrium defines that gene and allelic frequencies will remain the same among the generations in an infinitely large interbreeding population. In this population the mating among the members of the population is random and no selection, migration and mutation will occur.
