Answer:

D. A population with high genetic biodiversity is better able to respond to environmental stressors.

Explanation:

The genetic biodiversity of a species is the diversity of alleles that it possesses in its genetic pool. For a given gene, a population can have one or more alleles; and the more alleles the population has, it will be more diverse. Under normal conditions (without stress), the alleles that are present in high frequency in a population,  are those that best respond to the environment where the population occurs. However, if some environmental condition changes and some type of environmental stress emerge (ie drought), it is possible that these alleles no longer respond equally effectively and then, it is possible that the  alleles that on normal conditions occur with low frequency, are more adequate to face the stress. A population with fewer alleles (less genetic diversity) has terefore fewer options to deal with environmental stressors and<u> a population with high genetic biodiversity</u> will do this better.

Explanation:

In parasitic relationships,the parasite lives on the host and benefits from the host while causing harm to the host .the host does not benefit.the parasites are usually in close relationship with their host as their food source are substances of the host organisms.

The parasite may live in the host , these are called Endo-parasites.

The parasite may live outside the host, these are called ecto-parasite. In this example, the tapeworm is an endo-parasite that lives in the digestive tract of the goat. It absorbs digested food in the intestine through it's body surface.

In predator and prey relationship, the predator usually has to hunt for the prey and feed on it. It may kill it first or may not
