Chapter 19.4, Problem 3MC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The adaptation that protects against herbivory and predation.
Introduction:
In an ecosystem, various species share a common habitat. For example, the forest is a habitat for different kind of species. In such a condition, the organism can compete with each other for

How do the thorns help the rose to survive? The thorns help insects crawl to the flower. The thorns collect and store water to aide in the survival of the rose. The thorns are appealing to insects, causing them to be attracted to the rose. The rose then uses the insects for nourishment. The thorns serve as protection for the roses. Animals and insects avoid the roses because the thorns can cause harm.arrow_forward

This is an example of deception in communication. This only works because carnivorous plants are rare and commonly this attraction to food is rewarded by most flowering plants. Identify a cost to an insect species if they evolved a behavioral avoidance of carnivorous plant characteristics? The cost to insects would be they would overpopulate the niche and go extinct. If the insects evolved to avoid a potential food source they would reduce their fitness. O If the insects did not go to the carnivorous plants, they would die out. O There is no cost to insects if they evolve to avoid carnivorous plant characteristics. Week 9 Pre-lab.pdf A AY9 Week9_ng....xlsx A MacBook Air Copy of Lab 9 A....pdf 10.7591 97815arrow_forward
