When a harmless species gains protection against predators by resembling a poisonous or distasteful species, we describe this as  Blank______ mimicry.Multiple choice question.MüllerianBatesian

Select the correct answer.Which of the below is an example of mimicry that enables prey species avoid predation? A. a poisonous species warning others of danger through brightly colored markings B. a harmless organism imitating the look of a harmful organism C. a hard protective shell D. changing their coloration to blend in with their surroundings

Müllerian mimicry is whena) a harmless species imitates a harmful species.b) two or more unpalatable species mimic each other.c) a harmful species imitates a harmless species.d) two harmless species imitate each othe

One common form of evolutionary adaptation is Batesian mimicry: species that are harmless imitate the physical traits of species that are harmful. In some cases, this mimicry is near-identical, but in others it is imperfect. For example, the ------- hoverfly species Spilomyia longicornis displays highly contrasting yellow and black bands akin to the dangerous vespid wasp, but lacks the wasps’s long antennae. Which choice completes the text with the most logical and precise word or phrase? innocuous eliminatenoxious eliminateminisculeeliminatenegligible
