Animal Behavior

They are called 'decomposers'.

They may also be called 'scavengers'.

The biological relationships existing amount the organisms are Mutualism, Parasitism, Communalism and Amensalism. A tick is an example of the parasitism relationship, while a tick bird on a rhino represents a mutualism relationship.

Nocturnal vision refers to the ability of certain animals, like owls and cats, to see in low light conditions or darkness. These animals have specialized adaptations in their eyes that allow them to see better in the dark compared to humans.

If Crocodiles feel the need to group up with others (this rarely happens, as a crocodile will protect it's territory from others), they will. Such occasions include when crocodiles go 'fishing', and all join up and catch the fish.

Pigs are diurnal animals, which means they are mostly active during the day. They have good eyesight and rely on natural light to navigate their surroundings and find food. However, they can also adjust their behavior based on environmental conditions and may show some activity at night if necessary.

These animals visit flowers to obtain food in the form of nectar or pollen. Bees and butterflies feed on nectar for energy, while some mammals may consume parts of the flower or the pollen as a food source. In the process of collecting food, these animals inadvertently help in the pollination of the flowers, aiding in their reproduction.

Within certain species, the pros to group living triumph the cons. Group living can increase food gathering success and more achievement of avoiding predators, which in many cases makes the issues of competition and disease spread less imminent. Group living has many different assets to safety against predators. The three we are focusing on are the dilution effect, the confusion effect, and the odd prey effect. In the dilution effect, an individual's chance of being captured decreases as group size increases, often because the predator takes only a single or a limited number of prey on each attack. In the confusion effect, predators find it difficult to focus their concentration and pursuit on a specific individual prey animal when a large number of prey are escaping from predation at the same time, going in different directions, making a lot of noise, etc. It is difficult to focus on the stimuli coming from one prey because of the interference from all the stimuli coming from other escaping prey. The confusion may slow the predator down sufficiently that all of the prey are beyond successful pursuit distance before the predator is able to concentrate its efforts on any one prey animal, lowering the risk of capture for each prey individual in the group. In the odd prey effect, any prey that differs in a conspicuous way from the others in its group is more likely to draw a predator's notice, leading to an increased chance of its being attacked and captured.

It's called a fledgling this means that a bird had just grown its feathers

Rabbit mimicry refers to the behavior of other animals attempting to mimic the appearance or behavior of a rabbit for protection or survival. This can include animals evolving similar physical characteristics, such as large ears or white fur, to appear rabbit-like and avoid predators. It can also involve animals imitating rabbit hopping patterns or behaviors to blend in with rabbit populations and avoid detection.

You cannot pick one animal that mates the longest, since there are several that mate for life. The following are some of the animals that mate for life, the coyote, gibbons, black vultures, and swans.

A pyramid of biomass expresses the amount of living organic matter present at each trophic level within an ecosystem. It shows the relative distribution of biomass among different trophic levels, with producers at the base and top consumers at the apex. It highlights the energy transfer efficiency within the ecosystem.

Sponge fish, also known as spongivorous fish, primarily feed on marine sponges. They have specialized feeding behaviors and anatomy that allow them to efficiently consume and digest sponges, which are often toxic or unpalatable to other organisms. In addition to sponges, sponge fish may also consume small invertebrates or algae found in the same habitat.

No, they don't. Rats are a very sociale animal and love each other. I have pet rats and when one of them was sick the others brought her food, cleaned her fur and just stayed by her all the time. Rats seem to be a bad or evil creature but the only reason we don't like them is they're diseases they cause. GO RATS<----Dumb. If you dont know, don't answer......just because this clowns didn't, doesn't mean that others wont.

Actually, my sister's rat ate her babies last night. So, they do eat their young. I've been researching and people have differing opinions of why - they were weak, nobody knows why, etc - but my sister said the mother didnt have enough protein to feed them or something.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

one of my pinky rats were born and it died the same day :( and the mother ate it!

Rat's most definitely eat their young my rats had a litter of 10, and 2 weeks later i only had one left, hes thriving but his siblings were not as fortunate. So, YES, They Do

Yes and here are a few reasons:

1. the babies are weak and about to die so the mother kills it before it actually dies to 'clean' the nest. normally the eaten ones are the ones that are unlikely to survive anyways

2. stress can caused the mother to do unnatural behavior and by eating their young, the mother gain strength to counter the stress

3. lack of protein. rats are really into the game of life and if there isnt enough food for herself and the babies she would kill some or all of them to reduce the competition. if you own a rodent, i suggest you research more on this part on how to improve protein intake by the mothers

4. in the wild, the other adults eats it for variety of reasons including the ones above

5. finally, is all part of nature and it is nothing to be gruesome about. rats number is still and very large even after their cannibal behavior. as the matter of fact, it could be Mother's Nature way of controlling the rats population

Yes, this behavior is called crepuscular. Crepuscular animals are most active during dawn and dusk, while being less active during the day and night.

The only animal that can stand on its head is the flamingo. Their long legs and flexible neck allow them to balance and stand on one leg while tucking their head underneath their body.

Organisms that feed on both producers and decomposers are omnivores. These organisms have a diet that includes both plants and animals, as well as detritus and other organic matter found in the environment. Examples of omnivores include humans, bears, and raccoons.

The glowing tail of a firefly is a physical adaptation. Fireflies produce light through a process called bioluminescence, which is a chemical reaction that allows them to emit light. This adaptation helps fireflies to attract mates, warn predators, and communicate with each other.

The offspring of bacteria is aptly called bacteria. There are hundreds of thousands of types of bacteria in the world.

A behavioral act refers to an observable action or behavior performed by an individual. It encompasses a wide range of activities, from simple movements like smiling or waving to complex behaviors like driving a car or giving a presentation. Studying behavioral acts can help psychologists understand human behavior and motivations.

Many animals are playful, it just depends with whom you are talking about. For instance, dolphins are very playful with humans and other dolphins. However, they won't be so playful with turtles.

the Gila monsters has poison,4 legs,a strong grip,and yellow patches.

A fish is a consumer. A producer can only be something that makes its own food, like a plant.

I believe what your talking about is called instincts
