Question

Examine this food web for a particular terrestrial ecosystem. species c is toxic to predators. which species is most likely to benefit from being a mimic of c?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, the food web related to this question is not visible. However, it is probable that a species that would derive most benefit by mimicking a toxic species would occupy a similar position in the food web. The species would have to be of similar form for one to mimic another, and also be prey to similar predators. Usually, they would be fairly closely related.
