A century ago, hunters nearly eliminated otters across much of their range. After that, kelp forests up and down the couch vanished. Without otters preying on sea urchins, urchin populations skyrocketed. Armies or urchins devoured kelp. Without kelp forests as habitats, fishes, seabirds, and many other species disappeared. In this community, otters function as
symbiotic species
mutualistic species
commensalistic species
keystone species
a particularly close, interdependent relationship between two species is known as
symbiosis
predator prey relationships
succession
biodiversity
Between bees and flowers, the flowers get pollinated and the bees get nectar. Which type of symbiotic relationship is this?
mutualism
commensalism
parasitism
Tapeworms live in the intestines of mammals where they absorb large amounts of their hosts' partially-digested food. Which type of symbiotic relationship is this?
mutualism
commensalism
parasitism
What of the following is most likely to occur if an organism's environment is outside the organism's range of tolerance?
growth of the organisms increases
organisms fail to reproduce
organisms produce more offspring to increase their chance of survival
organisms develop mutualistic relationships
