Q. No.A parasitism that does not involve feeding on the body of the host is:
1. ectoparasitism 2. endoparasitism 3. parasitoids 4. brood parasitism
The adaptation that a prey species avoid being detected by a predator would be:
1. Mullerian mimicry
2. Batesian mimicry
3. aposematic coloration
4. cryptic coloration
The appearance of an animal that warns predators it is toxic, distasteful or dangerous is called as:
1. Batesian mimicry
2. Mullerian mimicry
3. aposematic coloration
4. cryptic coloration
The chemical defence produced by plants against herbivory are:
| 1. | primary metabolites | 2. | secondary metabolites |
| 3. | cofactors | 4. | pollens |
All the following are symbiotic relations except:
1. monarch butterflies and viceroy butterflies
2. lichens
3. mycorrhizae
4. tapeworms and humans
To avoid herbivory milkweeds secret latex containing:
1. cardiac glycosides
2. stipules
3. mustard oils
4. strychnine
The two species physically interfere with one another by aggressively attempting to exclude one another from particular habitats in:
| 1. | competitive exclusion | 2. | predation |
| 3. | exploitative competition | 4. | interference competition |
Monarch butterflies are toxic and unpalatable to predators because they:
| 1. | incorporate the toxic chemicals from the milkweed they eat |
| 2. | produce their own secondary compounds |
| 3. | break down the toxic chemicals from the milkweed they eat |
| 4. | live with symbionts that secret toxins |
Cryptically colored animals are most likely:
| 1. | Batesian mimics | 2. | is palatable to predators |
| 3. | aquatic | 4. | top predators |
Number of species in a community is an indicator of its:
| 1. | spatial heterogeneity | 2. | ecosystem productivity |
| 3. | species diversity | 4. | species richness |
