Question

Normally, the clown fish readily swims among the tentacles of the sea anemones; the parrot fish avoids them. One hypothesis for the clown fish's apparent immunity is that they slowly build a tolerance to the sea anemone's toxin. A second hypothesis is that a chemical in the mucus that coats the clown fish prevents the nematocysts from being triggered.

Required:
Draw the graphs that supports the first, but not the second, of these hypotheses.

Answer 1

The correct answer is - parrot fish - high, Clown fish - high.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the first hypothesis, the clown fish developed the immunity to the sea anemone's toxin so there would be a higher number of clown fish that swims among the tentacles of the sea anemones. The parrot fish avoids them also leads to a higher number of these fishes.

The correct graph that supports the first hypothesis that says that the clown fish's developed immunity build by them slowly, a tolerance to the sea anemone's toxin from tentacles of sea anemones.
