                a.            order

                b.            evolution

                c.             regulation

                d.            energy utilization

                a. One group is injected with pesticide, and one group has the pesticide rubbed on their skin.

                b. One group is injected with pesticide, and one group is not injected with anything.

                c. One group is injected with water, and one group is injected with pesticide.

                b. algae, earthworm, bird

                c. earthworm, algae, bird

                d. algae, bird, earthworm

Organism is to population as population is to ___________.

Solutions

Expert Solution

1) correct option : C

As we respire , we release CO2 . The CO2 comes from breakdown of sugar in our food . glucose reacts with oxygen and produces 6 CO2 molecules plus 6 water molecules and energy

2) correct option : A

Internal digestion if cellular garbage by membrane bound organelles called lysosomes . In prokaryotes membrane bound cellular organelles are absent like lysosomes , endoplasmic reticulum , mitochondria

3) Correct option : B (Evolution)

Above example explains the survival of the fittest

In evolution superior qualitiy population are selected and they selected .Remaining population with inferior qualities are eliminated due to lack of food

4) Correct answer : Hypothesis

The above answer is hypothesis rather than a observation

5)

C) One of the kingdoms of protista

6)

b) one group is injected with pesticide and another group not injected with anything

7)

d) algae , bird , earthworm

8)

a) community
