You do this new experiment at a new location (Bonaire), but use basically the same experimental approach and BACI design as Tuttle. a) You do not separate resident and transient clients (as Tuttle did), and below is a graph of your results showing the effect of the treatment on the total density of client fish in the community. Please explain your result. Imagine that you are planning to publish your experiment and that your answer to this question will be part of the “Results” section of your paper. Please do not worry about hypothetical statistical tests; just assume that the obvious patterns displayed in the graph can be interpreted at face value.arrow_forwardforest sites than in forest fragments, whereas there were no significant differences between fragments of different sizes. These results provide further evidence for the effects of habitat size on the phorid-Acromyrmex system in a tropical rain forest, based on the abundance of parasitoids both as adults in the field and as reared immature phorids in the laboratory. Phorid parasitized leafcutter ants were most abundant in areas of continuous forest, and less abundant in the forest fragments. O Phorid flies are important parasitoids of leafcutter ants nd leafcutter ants can be found in Brazil's Southeastern Both phorid flies Atlantic Forest. The study provides evidence that this parasitoid-host interaction between phorid flies and leafcutter ant differs between continuous forest and forest fragments. Phorid flies were just as abundant in forest fragments as they were in continuous forest, but were less successful in parasitizing leafcutter ants.arrow_forward
- determine what type of interaction the example is describing 1. Pilotfish remove and eat parasites found on a shark's skin. 2. A Brown-headed cowbird lays her eggs in the nest of a Kirtland's warbler who then raises the young cowbirds as if they were her own. 3.The fungus Ophiocordyceps unilateralis infects ants and alters the ant’s behavior. The infected ant leaves its colony and attaches itself to the underside of a leaf and remains there until the fungus’ life cycle is completed. At this point, a fruiting body emerges from the ant’s head, killing the ant, and the fungal spores are released into the environment. 4. A scorpion stings and subdues its grasshopper prey, then eats the grasshopper. 5. Two male black bears fight for mating territory. predation herbivory mutualism competition parasitismarrow_forward1) In the following scenarios determine if the communication scenario is deceit, mutuality, eavesdropping or spite. Be sure to justify your answer. a) Male guppies have red spots to attract mates. The redness comes from the diet of the male. Females prefer redder males when choosing a mate. b) In some species of frogs, smaller males will cue in on a larger male’s calls and try to intercept females before they reach the calling male. c) In some colonies of Argentine ants, workers will kill off males in order to bias the sex ratio so there are more females within the colony. d) The parasitoid wasp Pachysomoides fulvis will absorb the colony smell and will be able to move freely on the nest of the social wasp Polistes and lay its eggs in the cells of the host wasp’s nest..arrow_forwardWhich of the following is true? a. predation is a form of parasitism b. parasitism is a form of predation c. parasitism is detrimental to both organisms d. predation is always interspecificarrow_forward

Scientists genetically modify male mosquitoes in the lab. b. Mosquito offspring produced by the matings do not survive to adulthood. c. GM male mosquitoes mate with normal wild females. d. The mosquito population decreases dramatically. e. Scientists release GM male mosquitoes into the wild.arrow_forwardWhich of the following rows correctly describes the difference between predation and parasitism? Select one: a. Predation Parasitism The host species is killed to benefit the other species. The host species is not killed, but its life is barely sustained to benefit the other species. b. Predation Parasitism The host species is unharmed, and its life is sustained to benefit the other species. The host species killed or barely left alive to benefit the other species. c. Predation Parasitism The host species is not killed, but its life is barely sustained to benefit the other species. The host species is not killed, but its life is barely sustained to benefit the other species. d. Predation Parasitism The host species killed or barely left alive to benefit the other species. The host species is unharmed, and its life is sustained to benefit the other species.arrow_forward

Actors and recipients are characterised by increased reproductive success in mutually beneficial interactions. ii. Actors benefit and recipients incur costs (i.e., are harmed) in selfish interactions. iii. Actors incur costs (i.e., are harmed) and recipients benefit in altruistic interactions. iv. Actors incur costs (i.e., are harmed) and recipients incur greater costs in spiteful interactions.v. Hamilton's rule can be used to show that an allele encoding altruistic behaviour could be favoured; spiteful behavior, however, never can evolve.
