Describe the filter-feeding apparatus of a sea squirt and explain in what ways its mode of feeding is similar to, and different from, that of amphioxusarrow_forwardWhat is your hypothesis for this experiment? A. Pillbugs will move away from the choice chamber containing cornstarch, because they are repelled by cornstarch B. Pillbugs will move toward the choice chamber containing cornstarch, because they are attracted to cornstarch C. Pillbugs will have random movements between chambers, because they are indifferent to cornstarch What is your strategy? A. I will add 10 pillbugs and then continue to add pillbugs so that the number of pillbugs in each container remains equal. B. I will put one pillbug into the choice chamber and see where it immediately goes. C. I will add 5 pillbugs on the left and 5 pillbugs on the right and count the number of pillbugs on each side at regular intervals of time. What is your experimental setup for the top choice chamber?

Which statement below is the best explanation for this observation? The spicules of the sea anemone cannot penetrate a slime layer surrounding a clown fish but other fish do that have that neutralizing slime layer. Clown fish are good at maneuvering between the spines of the sea anemone and use them for camouflage. Clown fish are attracted to the cnidocytes of the sea anemone as their source of food. Clown fish are immune to the sting of the nematocyst of the sea anemone but other fish are not.arrow_forward
