Giraffes are herbivores found in Africa. They prefer to eat twigs and leaves from acacia trees. This type of producer–consumer relationship can be described as a predator–prey relationship or parasitism. Explain an instance the giraffe–acacia tree relationship would be parasitic and not predatior-prey.

Which statement about the classic competition experiments involving two
Paramecium species is FALSE?
The experiment involved interspecific competition.
The experiment involved exploitation competition.
Each species, when grown alone, exhibited logistic growth.
When grown together, the species exhibited logistic growth, but each reached a
lower carrying capacity than when it was grown alone.

- NOTE: The image you need to see in order to answer this question is attachedA developer owns the property encompassing the three habitats above. By law, one of the habitats must be left intact to satisfy the zoning laws. The developer works with an environmental engineer to choose which of the habitats should be saved. The environmental engineer suggests that Site C should be saved. Which of the following choices best justifies this decision?Responses A) Site C has greater species richness and species evenness than either Site A or Site B. This will promote the maximum sustainability for future generations of animals. B) Site C is tied with Site A for greatest species richness, but unlike Site A, it has representative species from all 3 of the sites within it. C) Site C not only contains the greatest number of species, it also has the greatest genetic diversity within each species.

- nd biodiversity of sites in their own community, students performed a leaf litter lab where leaf litterwas collected from two sites: one from beneath the trees in an organically managed, commercial landscapeestablished one year ago and one from beneath the trees in a nearby nature preserve that have not been trimmed ormanaged in over twenty years. The students hypothesized that there would be more insect biodiversity in the leaflitter at the nature preserve than at the managed site. The leaf litter from each site was placed into a funnel with alight shone on the top to drive any insects out of the litter. Species were collected in an alcohol-filled containerbelow the funnel, and the species were identified using magnifying lenses and a keyarrow_forwardfor species inasion what are the local negative ecological impacts of two example invasive speciesarrow_forwardImagine a community of organisms in a forest is affected by a chemical spill that leads to a fire. The fire is contained and burns out and the chemical spill is cleaned up. Monitoring of the plant community following this disturbance researchers noticed that after the spill and fire there was a sharp drop in species diversity, abundance, and richness. Over the next 5 years the area was monitored. The community's diversity, abundance, and richness all increased slightly during the first year however after the first year only the abundance went up during the following 4 years with no changes in any other area.
