Chapter 33, Problem 11TYU
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The reason as to why foraging of humming birds is necessary for humming birds.
Introduction:
Foraging is the process in which a bird moves and migrates from one place to other in wide search of food provisions. They hover from place to place in search of food and to suck nectar. Different birds have different diets and hence they forage to different places in the search for their correct food. Studying the characteristics of foraging, ornithologists obtain a lot of information about various parameters of birds.

Thank youarrow_forwardthe graph is depicting the size of eggs and number of eggs for the mycalesis terminus butterfly. the right of the graph represents the mass of the eggs (solid blue) and the left side represents the number of eggs (striped blue) Describe one realistic difference between host plants that might be affecting the numbers and sizes of eggs that a female lays on these plants. Suppose the ability of a female to adjust her egg and clutch size is an adaptation in these butterflies. Based on the difference between host plants that you identified in Part C, describe and explain why that difference would impact how a female adjusts the size or number of eggs (choose only one of these). Your answer just needs to be possible, not necessarily true.arrow_forwardA predator's foraging behavior can be altered by prey density is different ways (functional responses).
