Peppered Moth Simulation Assignment 1. These moths are called “peppered moths” because of the dark spots on their wings 2. Some of the peppered moth’s predators include flycatchers‚ nuthatches and the European robin. 3. Lichens are fungi that cover the barks of trees. The colour of lichens look very similar to the pattern of the peppered moth’s wings 4. The larvae of the moth eat leaves from birch‚ willow‚ and oak trees. 5. Since the peppered moth lives less than one year‚ during the winter

that have occurred in the past. A hypothetical situation of how natural selection could result in the species surviving is if one or few of the frogs had a mutation that enabled them to change color according to what they were on top of whenever a predator swam by or a human tried to catch them. This would help these frogs with survival greatly‚ and when would begin passing this trait onto their offspring and their offspring passing it onto their offspring‚ natural selection would be the end result

Sloths—the adorable and lethargic animals living in treetops—depend on the health and survival of Central and South American tropical forests. They spend much of their lives in the canopy‚ snoozing and remaining hidden from predators. The animals live solitary lives and travel from tree to tree using canopy vines. Located in places such as Brazil and Panama‚ the six species of this strange and wonderful animal need healthy forests to survive. But tropical forests are some of the most vulnerable

Knowing that we started with 30 of each of white and yellow “paper moths” in the simulation‚ and considering the numbers your hunters picked up‚ how many of each type of paper moths survived after each trail: Trail One: 3 White Paper Moth & 9 Yellow Paper Moth Trail Two: 4 White Paper Month & 7 Yellow Paper Moth Trail Three: 13 White Paper Moth & 18 Yellow Paper Moth What did the experiment show about how prey are selected by predators?

between different types of foods in the pitch dark. Unfortunately‚ they also emit a very strong odor‚ sometimes described as “a strong musty smell”. This likely helps kakapos find each other in the forest This smell can oftentimes be a red flag for predators‚ making it harder for the Kakapo to hide effectively. When the Kakapo enters breeding season in the summer‚ they are also known for their incredibly unique behaviors. They are the only flightless bird with a “lek” breeding system. They attract

In ecology‚ predation describes a biological interactions[->0] where a predator (an organism that is hunting) feeds on its prey (the organism that is attacked). Predators may or may not kill their prey prior to feeding[->1] on them‚ but the act of predation always results in the death of its prey and the eventual absorption of the prey’s tissue through consumption.[2] Other categories of consumption[->2] are herbivory[->3] (eating parts of plants) and detritivory[->4]‚ the consumption of dead organic

All predators do most of their digesting inside their bodies‚ which is different from herbivores‚ which chew their food as part of the process. Instead‚ they use their teeth to crush and grasp at their prey. Number Fourteen: They Cool
