There are a wide range of potential costs and benefits of living in a group. Sometimes these costs and benefits can create tradeoffs with respect to optimal group size. The following graphs show two such factors – risk of disease (in red) and risk of predation (in black). Researchers can use these relationships to predict optimal group size (yellow star). Which of the following graphs is most consistent with what you would expect for these costs and benefits of group living?
As used in the interaction grid, MUTUALISMS are: Plus/plus interactions between two different species. Plus/plus interactions between two individuals of the same species. Plus/plus interactions either within or between species. Any interaction that is plus for one or both species.
Read this quote from Charles Darwin (from Origin of Species). What is he describing? "Thus, I can understand how a flower and a bee might slowly become, either simultaneously or one after the other, modified and adapted to each other in the most perfect manner, by the continued preservation of all the individuals which presented slight deviations of structure mutually favorable to one another." An interaction network. A predator/prey cycle. O Coevolution. An obligate mutualism.
Which of the following ecological situations would result in INCREASED selection on the peaceful “dove” strategy relative to the hawk-dove game discussed in class? Increased value of the resource Unlikely that the individual will have future opportunities to get the resource Decreased cost of displaying All of the above
Suppose that in maroon-fronted parrots, the number of chicks born each year in a population is compared to the number of predators in the same area. Correlation coefficient = -0.1 Number of predators Describe the type and strength of the relationship between number of chicks and predators. positive, curvilinear, weakly correlated positive, linear, strongly correlated negative, linear, weakly correlated negative, curvilinear, strongly correlated negative, curvilinear, weakly correlated Number of parrot chicks
Prairie dogs are small mammals that live in large colonies in burrows in the ground. Prairie dogs that are near their own relatives when a predator approaches are much more likely to issue a warning bark than those that are near unrelated prairie dogs. The prairie dogs that hear a warning bark are more likely to hide in their burrows than to remain above ground. However, the prairie dog that gives the warning bark is putting itself at increased risk of being identified and killed by the predator. Which of the following presents the most likely evolutionary explanation for the behaviors described? a) The barking prairie dog chooses to warn other prairie dogs, leading to more prairie dogs living above ground. b) The failure of the individual to bark when surrounded by unrelated prairie dogs ensures survival of the individual. c) The barking prairie dog is alerting unrelated prairie dogs to the predator, so it is not giving any advantage to its own relatives.…
Interaction exhibited by the organisms named cat and rat is called; 1: mutualism 2: commensalism 3: predation 4: parasitism 5: competition
Commensalism is: An interaction that has no effect on either of two species. An interaction that benefits one species and has no effect on a second species. An interaction that harms one species and has no effect on a second species. An interaction harms each of two species.
Species interactions can be categorized into five different groups. List, define them, and provide an example of each.

However, the prairie dog that gives the warning bark is putting itself at increased risk of being identified and killed by the predator.Which of the following presents the most likely evolutionary explanation for the behaviors described? * d 2 thool The barking prairie dog is alerting unrelated prairie dogs to the predator, so it is not giving any advantage to its own relatives. The failure of the individual to bark when surrounded by unrelated prairie dogs ensures survival of the individual. The warning bark changes the behavior of the related prairie dogs nearby, allowing the prairie dog's t have increased survival and…

Florida Scrub Jays live in extended family groups in which one pair breeds and all of their relatives help take care of the chicks. At night all the members of a family would perch near the nest. What spatial distribution would this represent? Group of answer choices -clumped -over dispersed -random -complicated
