Question
Chapter 28.3, Problem 2TC
Summary Introduction
To explain:
How might predators evolve to detect camouflaged prey.
Introduction:
“Camouflage” is an adaptation in which the insects resemble the color of the background environment and thus evade the attack of predators as they are not visible. Predators are larger organisms which eat the smaller organisms called as prey. Coevolution is the process of the simultaneous evolution of the new species of predator and prey due to the formation of new adaptive features.
