- Some species of animals gain physiological advantages byexploiting the specialized physiological capabilities of otherspecies. Explain how marine mammals that prey on teleost fishrather than invertebrates illustrate this principle. Also explainhow carnivorous mammals that prey on herbivorous mammalsin deserts illustrate the same principle.arrow_forwardDuring migratory locomotory functions of insects, the following are suppressed in their body, EXCEPT Question 5 options: all metabolic activities feeding reproductionarrow_forwardA predator's foraging behavior can be altered by prey density is different ways (functional responses). While some predators consume more preys at higher prey density (e.g., spiders), other predators such as pelicans will slowly decrease prey consumption as prey density increases. What type of functional response will describe a backswimmer (aquatic predatory insect) that exhibits low prey consumption under low prey density, rapid prey consumption under moderate prey density that slows down at high prey density?

- !arrow_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?

- Suggest two pros and two cons of the trip made by the Monarch butterfly?arrow_forwardAnurans Most anurans breed in water and rainfall stimulates breeding in many species. Ponds may attract aggregations of anurans during breeding season and males usually are the first to arrive. In most cases, females are attracted by vocalizations by males (see beginning of our lab manual). 1) This display is called “semaphoring”.
