A scientist is studying a new species of aphid from a tropical forest. The scientist notices that the aphid is always found attached to a leaf, which it has pierced. The aphid is consuming the plant directly from the phloem. Often, the scientist finds an ant species that is cleaning and protect an aphids while also eating its sugar-rich excrement (often called honeydew). He thinks he has identified community interactions of these species that featurê: O Herbivory and commensalism O Predation and parasitism O Herbivory and mutualism O Parasitism and mutualism

Identify the most probable “suspect” based on the limited information provided by the report and explain why you think this protist must have caused the victims to lose consciousness. Try to make a succinct profile of the “suspect” including justification of answer in the symptoms portion. Make sure that the treatment is locally available in our country. Do not forget to include the reference/s used.
Do you have any suggestions on how they could have controlled the spread of kudzu? As you stated in your post, the plant thrives in certain environmental conditions. Do you feel that certain environmental aspects can be purposely altered in an attempt to slow the progress of the plant? I was more interested in the kudzu plant as it has the ability to cause great harm, even to the extent of wiping out other plants and trees. Please explain the full bold information please. Thank you

The microorganisms responsible for symbiotically fixing nitrogen in the nodules on the roots of legume plants are: bacteria actinomycetes algae fungi O autotrophs
Developing antifungal drusg is more difficult than developin antibacterial drugs. compounds that harm fungi more frequently cause side effects in humas than compounds that harm bacteria. Explain why this is the case, given the evolutionary relationship among bacteria, fungi, and humas.
Microtaxonomy (Species and Speciation) Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is a fungus that causes mango anthracnose. It's a devastating disease being avoided by mango farmers. For example, in the island province of Guimaras, Philippines, one cannot bring mango into the island to avoid contamination of the mango plantations. Guimaras produces the sweetest mango in the world. One challenge in the control of mango anthracnose is that C. gloeosporioides is a species complex. What is a complex and how do we provide clear delineation (if we can) among these closely related species?
Research an interesting example of mutualism, and present your findings in a post. The goal here is to provide examples beyond what is presented in lecture and/or your textbook. These can be animal-animal, animal-fungal, plant-fungal, plant-animal, bacteria-animal....the sky is the limit! For this particular forum, you'll be able to see other classmates postings even before you post your own. This is so you can present an example that's different from what's already been discussed. Remember that mutualistic interactions are associations that benefit both parties -- so your response should clearly indicate the role each partner plays. Let us know where these organisms are found, what kind of habitat they live in, and any other interesting , pertinent information. Also, please comment on how natural selection likely played a role in the development of your example. You can use your imagination a bit here -- I'd just like to see you connect the ideas. Your posting must be at least…
