Answer: c. According to how the client's body responds

Explanation:

Dietary requirements are paramount in body building as they supply the body with the nutrients needed to maintain a certain type with a mix of macro and micro nutrients.

This mix however is quite varied per person as people process nutrients differently. The amount of meals that should be taken therefore will depend on how the client's body responds because no single plan is a one size fits all.

Answer:

1. Mutualism

2. Mutualism (it was previously thought to be a case of commensalism)

3. Predation

4. Competition

Explanation:

1. Zooxanthellae and hard coral - Mutualism

These two organisms live in symbiosis. This means that both benefit each other. Zooxanthellae allow corals to gain energy through photosynthesis and, in turn, they receive important nutrients that are produced during the metabolism of the hard coral.

2. Remora and manta ray - Mutualism

Remoras and manta rays benefit each other. Remoras attach to manta rays mainly for transportation and feeding, but they also do it for protection. In turn, they make sure manta rays are clear from harmful bacteria and parasites. Several years ago, it was thought that manta rays didn't gain any benefit from remoras, so this was thought to be a case of commensalism. However, research has shown that they both benefit from each other. Therefore, this is also a case of mutualism.

3. Tiger shark and green sea turtle - Predation

In some areas (not everywhere) tiger sharks feed upon green sea turtles. For example, in Hawaii, have been observed to attack green sea turtles and feed on them. Researchers have spotted numerous sea turtles with characteristic tiger shark bites.

4. Dolphins and school of trevallies - Competition

Trevallies are large species of fish that feed on small schools of fish like dolphins. They both have their own predatory strategies that involve planning and gathering to catch large amounts of fish. Therefore, trevallies and dolphins compete for small schools of fish.

Paul [167]

Answer: C. The environment changed suddenly from a shallow ocean setting to a river system.

Explanation:

The presence of the fossils of shallow oceanic creatures like corals points to the fact that the environment was a shallow ocean at some point. There is also a presence of a layer on top of that which points to a river system.

The fact that the oceanic fossils are beneath the river system layer means that the ocean came first and the river system layer came second. The environment must therefore have been a shallow ocean setting that changed into a river system.

Explain why the vessels that transport water in trees must be very small in diameter.

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The diameter of the xylem vessels should be small in order for the capillary action to take place.

Explanation:

The vessels through which water is transported to different parts of the plants and trees are the xylem. Water is transported in the trees through a mechanism named as capillary action. This mechanism can occur only if the diameter of the vessels are small.

The water molecules adhere to the walls of xylem and an upward force is generated. If the diameter of the vessels i.e xylem would be small then the surface tension between the xylem and water molecules would be enough to move the water in an upward direction.
