Match List $I$ with List $II$.
List $I$ (Interacting species) | List $II$ (Name of interaction) |
$A$. A Leopard and a Lion in a forest/grassland | $I$. Competition |
$B$. A Cuckoo laying egg in a Crow's nest | $II$. Brood parasitism |
$C$. Fungi and root of a higher plant in Mycorrhizae | $III$. Mutualism |
$D$. A cattle egret and a Cattle in a field | $IV$. Commensalism |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below.
A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV
A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
A-I, B-II, C-IV, D-III
A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
Observe the set of $4$ figures $A$, $B$, $C$ and $D$ and, answer the following questions
$(i)$ Which one of the figures shows mutualism ?
$(ii)$ What kind of association is shown in $D$ ?
$(iii)$ Name the organisms and the association in $C$.
$(iv)$ What role is the insect performing in $B$ ?
Match the columns :
Column - $I$ | Column - $II$ |
$(a)$ Cacti | $(i)$ Leguminous plants |
$(b)$ Shade loving plants | $(ii)$ Commensalism |
$(c)$ Halophytes | $(iii)$ Pioneer community |
$(d)$ Crustose lichen | $(iv)$ Plants growing in saline environment Xerophyte |
$(e)$ Interspecific interaction |
$(v)$ Xerophytes |
$(f)$ Rhizobium | $(vi)$ Sciophytes |
Territoriality occurs as a result of
$A$ : The interaction between sea anemone and clown fish is commensalism.
$R$ : The fish gets protection from predators but anemone does not appear to derive any benefit.
