It’s not herbivorous because no, and it’s not detritus because again no, and not parasitic so your only answer left is mutualistic which it is

Answer:

Mutualistic

Explanation:

Mutualistic relationship may be defined as a type of biological interaction in which both the organism are benefited from each other. This shows a positive type of relationship between the organisms.

The bird cattle egret perch on cow's back and eats the prey that hurdles the cow, in returns the cow provide food to the cattle egret. Hence, they shows mutual type of interaction with each other.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

Do you think the gene EEF1 ALPHA1 supports cell theory
Leto [7]

The gene EEF1 ALPHA1 supports cell theory. Cell theory states that all living things are made from cells. Since all living things share this gene that dates back to an organism that lived billions of years ago, it makes sense to conclude that all living things originated from the earliest forms of life. This conclusion would explain why all living things on Earth are made of cells.

Ground squirrels are found in many areas of the United States. They live in underground burrows and are often attacked by birds
Ket [755]

The population of the ground squirrels will be limited by the population of the hawks. The population of the hawks, thus, will be a limiting factor for the population of the ground squirrels. The Hawks are the birds of prey that feeds on squirrels. With the increased number of hawks in the same area as them will put these squirrels in danger. The population of the tree squirrels, however, will have no affect on the population of the ground squirrels. The genetic variability and breeding season are not limiting factors for their population either.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option B - a population of hawks'.

Which two cellular organelles in eukaryotes have both electron transport systems and chemiosmotic mechanisms?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

Mitochondria and the chloroplast

Explanation:

Electron transport refers to the transfer of of electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors via a reduction-oxidation reaction.  

In the mitochondria the process is called Oxidative phosphorylation whereas in the Chloroplast it is called Photo-phosphorylation since it utilizes light.

Chemiosmotic mechanisms allow the movement of ions across a semi-permeable membrane down their electrochemical gradient.

In both mitochondria and chloroplast,have these mechanisms for the production of ATP .

Single strands of nucleic acids are directional, meaning that there are two different ends. What functional groups define the tw
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

The 5' end has free phosphate group while the 3' end has free OH group.

Explanation:

Each DNA strand has two ends that differ from each other with respect to the functional group. The nucleotide present at the 5' end of a DNA strand has a free phosphate group. This phosphate group of other nucleotides of the DNA strand is bonded in phosphodiester bonds. Likewise, the 3' end of a DNA has a free OH group. This makes the two ends of a DNA strand quite different from each other. A DNA new nucleotide can be added to the 3' end due to the presence of a free OH group.
