[1] 1.2 Using common names, list two animals from the image that might be involved in the symbiotic relationship indicated in Q 1.1 [2] 1.3 If you were to remove one of the animals indicated in Q 1.2, how will the remaining organisms be affected? [3] 1.4 As an ecologist conducting research, you decide to apply a redundancy model to the community in the picture. Which species would you use to demonstrate your point and how? [3]

1 One possible symbiotic relationship that might take place in the community above is mutualism, where both species benefit from the interaction. 1.2 Two animals from the image that might be involved in this mutualistic relationship could be the bee and the Show more…

Symbiotic Species When two species, such as the rhinoceros and birds pictured below, coexist in a symbiotic (dependent) relationship, they either increase together or decrease together. Typical equations for the growth rates of two such species might be $\frac{d x}{d t}=-4 x+4 x y$ $\frac{d y}{d t}=-3 y+2 x y$ (a) Find an equation relating $x$ and $y$ if $x=5$ when $y=1$ (b) Find values of $x$ and $y$ so that both populations are constant. (See Exercise 7.) (c) A graph of the relationship found in part (a) is shown in the figure. Based on the differential equations for the growth rate and this graph, what happens to both populations when $y>1 ?$ When $y<1 ?$

Read the scenario and match the symbiotic relationship. Question 1 options: commensalism mutualism parasitism 1. Nitrogen-fixing bacteria get a place to live and food in the roots of plants while helping the plant. 2. Bromeliads are plants that live on the tall trees in the rainforest. The tree is not harmed by them. 3. Ticks can attach to the skin of humans or other mammals. The ticks feed on the blood to grow.

1. _____ is an interaction in which individuals exploit the same resource and, therefore, the availability of that resource is reduced for all individuals. Commensalism Competition Resource partitioning Mutualism Parasitism 4. The sum total of populations of different species that live in a given area is called a(n): interaction. community. habitat. ecosystem. 9. Which of these is a good predictor of biodiversity in terrestrial ecosystems? pollinator species in a community plant species in a community predator species in a community prey species in a community
