Imagine a hypothetical scenario where the species-species interaction between ants and treehoppers were that of consumption, where ants are benefiting. In such a case, the number of treehoppers over the months of year one would likely be the higher with ants.Question 2Answera.Trueb.False

Based on the mutualistic relationship that was uncovered between ants and treehoppers in the experiment, the number of treehoppers should always be higher in the presence of ants compared to when ants are absent.Question 4Answera.Trueb.False

Suppose a certain species of insect lives in the lush green canopy of the rain forest. Some of the insects are bright green in color, and some are bright yellow. Assume there is a natural predator of the insect in the area. What do you expect to happen to the populations of the green and the yellow insects over time?  A. The green insect population will increase and the yellow insect population will decrease.  B. The green insect population will decrease and the yellow insect population will increase.  C. Both insect populations will remain constant over time.  D. Both insect populations will increase over time.
