The main predator that crab lab are avoid using the shadow response is?
For each of the five stages in a predation event, how might prey evolve a defense against predators?
Interpret the following graphs:
In the graphs, the number of days are 18.. 1 day is equal to 60 sec. For the first graph, days are taken on x-axis. The mean foraging times are taken on y-axis. For the 2nd graph, percentage of prey caught during first half of winter(1-6days) were taken on x-axis and percentage of prey caught during 2nd half of winter(7-12days) were taken on y-axis.

Figure 1: The hypothesis for novice vs. experienced foraging is that animals who have been foraging for ages should have a greater chance of survival than beginner foragers since they are more skilled and invest less time looking for food. Figure 2: The hypothesis behind the impact of Prey camouflage is that if animals, especially novice foragers, take too much time searching, they are visible to predators for long durations, providing a better chance to attack.arrow_forwardWhy do some animals that maintain activity in near-ice temperatures cease to be active in summer if they are moved suddenly to the same low temperatures?arrow_forward
