Both lichens and corals are examples of mutualistic relationships between organisms of different types. How are these two relationships similar? How are they different?
Mutualism is a type of symbiotic relationship in which both the
organisms in the relationship benefit from each other.
In lichen, Algae gets water and nutrients from the fungus while
fungus also gets food from the algae.
Both benefit from each other by supplying food to others.
In coral reefs, corals get food like algae, while algae get
protection from predators by hiding in corals.
Here one gets food and others gets protection.
Both are types of mutualistic relationships.
Both lichens and corals are examples of mutualistic relationships between organisms of different types. How are...
Complete the following paragraph to describe lichens. cyanobacteria Lichens are a symbiotic relationship between fungi and photosynthesizing organisms, including and green algae. sac fungi Olten, fruticose are the fungi involved and they form relationships and green algae. with basidiomycota Because it is now thought that the fungi are benefitted with nutrients while the are harmed and nutrient-depleted, this symbiotic relationship is actually considered to be a relationship. parasitic protists Three types of lichens are known, including lichens, which are seen...
On a coral reef there are many interactions between animals, with even more important interactions between animals and microbes. Some of these relationships are critical for the coral colony survival while others contribute to the health decline of coral reefs. reefs? What is coral bleaching and how might corals be able to adapt to avoid the destruction of coral Genome sequencing of the bacterial symbionts of animals has allowed us to compare the genomic features of several symbionts. What can...
1. Why are both sponges and corals hardened? What benefit does this give the organisms? 2. Compare and contrast the different morphs in Cnidaria in terms of movement, shape, complexity, etc. 3. Sponges and cnidarians have no lungs or gills. How do they exchange gases with the environment? Are humans better off having lungs? Why/why not?
Answer both questions
The simplest model for a mutualistic interaction between two species is similar to the basic Lotka-Volterra model as described in Chapter 14 for two competing species. The crucial difference is that rather than negatively influencing each other's growth rate, the two species have positive interactions. The competition coefficients a and fi arc replaced by positive interaction coefficients. reflecting the per capita effect of an individual of species 1 on species 2 (alpha 12) and the effect of...
How have humans genetically modified organisms for use in cloning? What are some examples of different types of clones (hint: don’t forget about bacteria clones, like the GMO bacteria that make synthetic human insulin)? What are the potential benefits of creating and using clones? What are some potential consequences of creating and using clones? Can you please use APA in text citation? (3-4 sources)
what is horizontal gene transfer? how can it confuse our understanding of relationships between organisms? describe this in terms of the acquisition of mitochondria and chloroplasts in domain eukarya.
How does DNA account for both the common features and diversity observed in living organisms and how can it help us understand the evolutionary relationships between them?
Create four graphs showing the following four types of relationships between variables (Cozby p 79): positive linear relationship, negative linear relationship, curvilinear relationship, no relationship. You need to choose two variables for each different type of graph. In other words, you cannot use the same variables for all four graph. You may not use any of the examples in the textbook.
Ecology is the study of the relationships between living organisms, including humans, and their physical environment; it seeks to understand the vital connections between plants and animals and the world around them. Ecology also provides information about the benefits of ecosystems and how we can use Earth’s resources in ways that leave the environment healthy for future generations.(Ecological Society of America Website) Q1. Recent fires have devastated large parts of California. What are some ecological interactions that may have contributed...
How is a firm's task environment different from its general environment? Provide examples of both types of environments. What is the PESTEL model? Give one example of how each segment can impact a business. What are the two key insights that form the basis of Michael Porter's seminal five forces model? What is meant by industry convergence? Explain with the help of a real-world example. How was Airbnb able to disrupt the hotel industry, dominated by huge organizations like Marriott...
