Which of the following regarding species interactions is INCORRECT? a) The net effects of a mutualism on each participant is a fixed characteristic of the interaction, and is rarely influenced by external factors. b) Reciprocal parasitism is an accurate way of describing many mutualistic interactions. c) The Lotka-Volterra competition model accounts for the effects of both interspecific and intraspecific competition.
You are studying two new species that have a mutualistic relationship. How would you determine if the mutualism is facultative or obligate? What types of observational data would you collect and what type of experiment would you conduct?
Which of the following is the best evidence that a mutualism is NOT a byproduct mutualism? Group of answer choices A. Each partner changes the help they give based on the amount of help from the other B. Each partner benefits from the relationship C. Each partner is a member of a different species D. The observed partners are nonkin E. The observed partners are kin
Which of the following statements about a mutualism are true? Each species is trying to increase the fitness of the other species Both species benefit from the interaction One species benefits and the other species may or may not benefit Mutualisms are rare Group of answer choices a. 2 only b. 3 only c. 2 and 4 d. 1 and 3
Interspecific interactions affect the survivaland reproduction of the species that engage in them. As shownin the table, these interactions can be grouped into three broadcategories: competition, exploitation, and positive interactions
Which of the following species interaction types are positive for one participating species, and negative for the other species. Please select all correct answers. a.) Parasitism b.) Amensalism c.) Commensalism d.) Predation e.) Mutualism
How can a commensalism become a mutualism? a. A commensalism cannot become a mutualism. b. An interaction that was once harmful to one species becomes beneficial to both species. c. An interaction that was once harmful to both species becomes beneficial to one species. d. An interaction that was once beneficial to both species becomes beneficial to only one species. e. An interaction that was once beneficial to one species becomes beneficial to both species.
Which of the following can explain why species are able to coexist, even if the competitive exclusion principle is generally true? a) Species may be competitively equivalent, with the outcome of each competitive encounter being essentially random. b) Competitive exclusion may take many generations; prior to that point, there will be coexistence. c) Spatial heterogeneity in the distribution and concentrations of limiting resources can result in variation in the strength of competition across the landscape. choose all the answers that apply.
In which type of species interaction do both species have lower success when the other species is present? Group of answer choices mutualism commensalism competition predation
A student decided to collect data to see if he could find support for the IDH in a grassland setting. His data generated the following averages; Low disturbance species richness average 51 ±.53 Intermediate disturbance species richness average 21 ±.61 High disturbance species richness average 31 ± .21 The student also conducted t-tests comparing the groups to each other and ended up with the following p values; Intermediate vs Low Disturbance p= .02 Intermediate vs High Disturbance p=.01 Examine the averages and p-values. Did the student find the pattern predicted by the IDH? Explain your answer.
