How is the response of the periwinkles and whelks likely to affect the population of hermit crabs?
The response of periwinkles and whelks, both of which are predators of juvenile hermit crabs, can significantly impact hermit crab populations. If these predators increase in number or alter their feeding behavior, they may reduce the survival rates of juvenile hermit crabs, leading to a decline in their overall population. Conversely, if periwinkle and whelk populations decrease or shift their diet, hermit crab populations may rebound. Thus, the dynamics between these species can create fluctuations in hermit crab numbers depending on predator pressures.
What are two reasons why hermit crabs put sea anemone on their shells?
it is to protect themselves from being eaten by predators and if the predator eats the hermit crab, the poison of the sea anemone would be released and the predators will die.
What advantages and disadvantages do hermit crab and snail provide for each other?
Advantages: With a shell, the hermit crab is safer from predators, or any other threats. It is basically more protected. The snails have less shells lying around because a hermit crab is probably constantly looking for a new one. Disadvantages: The snail's shell is heavy on the hermit crab's back, so it slows it down. A hermit crab outgrows its shell and will have to find a new one soon. The snail has no disadvantages. I hope I helped you! Sorry if this isn't what you were looking for! :)
