The study of species diversity and the role of interactions among species in influencing diversity is known as ___. - community ecology Organisms that feed upon plants are known as ___. - primary consumers A species interaction in which on species benefits and another species does worse than it would if it was alone is known as ___. - predation Insect herbivores differ from mammalian herbivores in which of the following ways? - insects tend to be more specialized in the plants they eat ...

A succulent plant is grown in a low light situation so that it is very tall, pale, and has few leaves compared to its siblings grown in full sun. Is this an evolutionary change or not, and why? - - not evolution because no genetic changes -not evolution because phenotypic change You are studying the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase in a population of Drosophila. The allele frequency of the fast allele is 0.3 and the allele frequency of the slow allele is 0.7. Assuming the population is in ...
