Answer 2

Mimicry

Step-by-step explanation:

Mimicry is an evolved similarity ( in traits and behaviors ) , often between two organisms

An example of mimicry is the resemblance between coral snakes and kingsnakes. A kingsnake is a harmless snake whereas a coral snake is a fairly venomous snake. A kingsnake looks similar to a coral snake ( mimics its features) leading to kingsnake predators often intimidated by the kingsnakes appearance, because like stated before coral snakes are venomous and kingsnakes mimic their features.
