Question
Chapter 33, Problem 8TYU
Summary Introduction
To determine: Whether the tiger moths jam the bat’s sonar signal the bat about the moth’s toxic defenses with reference to the graph depicted in the question.
Introduction:
Bats are nocturnal mammals that belong to the group of chiroptera. They hunt their prey at night by using their sonar signals. They form image of their prey by detecting the returning signals and then hunt down the prey. Tiger moths belong to the phylum Insecta. They are named so because they have tiger like stripes on their body.

Most answers will be multiple sentences or a paragraph in length.Nearly half a century ago, D. W. Kaufman investigated the effect of prey camouflage on predation. Kaufman tested the hypothesis that the amount of contrast between the coat color of a mouse and the color of its surroundings would affect the rate of nighttime predation by owls. He also hypothesized that the color contrast would be affected by the amount of moonlight. In this exercise, you will analyze data from his owl-mouse predation studies.Pairs of mice (Peromyscuspolionotus) with different coat colors, one light brown and one dark brown, were released simultaneously into an enclosure that contained a hungry owl. The researcher recorded the color of the mouse that was first caught by the owl. If the owl did not catch either mouse within 15 minutes, the test was recorded as a zero. The release trials were…arrow_forwardSuppose you hold one group of active beetles at 20°C andanother group at 30°C.

II a popuration of prey randomly acquires a mutation that happens to make them blend in more with their environment (i.e. become cryptic), then predators are going to have a harder time finding prey visually. Given how difficult predation is generally, most predators have evolved strategies to minimize their search when hunting. Therefore, prey individuals carrying this new cryptic mutation are more likely to avoid detection as predators focus on and eat relatively more of the individuals that stand out in their habitat. In this way, we can have differential survival and reproduction of prey individuals based on how their heritable phenotype varies in the population- in other words, natural selection can favor cryptic coloration in predator-filled environments. However, natural selection only 'sees' phenotypes, it does not act on organisms' genotypes directly. Therefore, to understand how a trait is…arrow_forward
