Which of these is NOT a resource?
Which of these is NOT a resource?
The answer is plastic.
Resources are defined as a substance or object in the environment required by an organism for normal growth, maintenance, and reproduction. Resources can be consumed by one organism and, as a result, become unavailable to another organism. When resources are limited, “competition,” increases and some populations of organisms will decrease. Some individuals may even be weaker or smaller without the resources they need.
Natural disasters, environmental changes, and humans can all have an effect on the availability of resources. When a drought occurs, many plants and animals die. When forests are cleared for human use, animals and plants do not have habitat.
Some animals are technically a “resource” for others. The predator prey relationship consists of the interactions between two species and their consequent effects on each other. In the predator prey relationship, one species is feeding on the other species. The prey species is the animal being fed on, and the predator is the animal being fed. Usually these populations go through cycles.

If a drought were to occur which of these would be affected by the lack of resources?
If a drought were to occur which of these would be affected by the lack of resources?
The answer is "all of these would be effected" because all organisms need water. Additionally some animals eat plants, and humans eat animals.

Symbiosis is a close relationship between two species in which at least one species benefits. For the other species, the relationship may be positive, negative, or neutral. There are three basic types of symbiosis: mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism.
Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship in which both species benefit. Commensalism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species benefits while the other species is not affected. One species typically uses the other for a purpose other than food. Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species (the parasite) benefits while the other species (the host) is harmed.
A type of relationship that is not symbiotic but still seen often in ecology is the Predator-Prey relationship. The predator prey relationship consists of the interactions between two species and their consequent effects on each other. In the predator prey relationship, one species is feeding on the other species. The prey species is the animal being fed on, and the predator is the animal being fed.

The photosynthetic activity of the algae is vital to the survival of the coral animals, which use the energy to extract calcium from the seawater and build their calcareous skeletons. The zooxanthellae are protected by the hard coral and obtain plant nutrients from the coral. This is an example of:

One species typically uses the other for a purpose other than food. Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species (the parasite) benefits while the other species (the host) is harmed.
A type of relationship that is not symbiotic but still seen often in ecology is the Predator-Prey relationship. The predator prey relationship consists of the interactions between two species and their consequent effects on each other. In the predator prey relationship, one species is feeding on the other species. The prey species is the animal being fed on, and the predator is the animal being fed. Usually these populations go through cycles.
The answer is mutualism.
Symbiosis is a close relationship between two species in which at least one species benefits. For the other species, the relationship may be positive, negative, or neutral. There are three basic types of symbiosis: mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism.
Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship in which both species benefit. Commensalism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species benefits while the other species is not affected. One species typically uses the other for a purpose other than food. Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species (the parasite) benefits while the other species (the host) is harmed.

The clownfish and the sea anemone are a famous example of a symbiotic relationship. The sea anemone offers the clownfish protection and leftover food while the sea anemones are given better water circulation because the clownfish fan their fins while swimming about. This is an example of which type of symbiotic relationship?
