1. Coevolution and Commensalism- Coevolution is when two species interact so closely with each other in the structure, function, or behavior. It’s related to commensalism becauaw when two species interact with each other, one might benefit from the other species, but the other species might remain neutral.
2. Mimicry and Aposematic Coloration- When animals use aposematic coloration, they give warning to other predator, and thus, animals can gather together and give each other protection.
3. Altruism and Allele- Altruism is when one species give up their life and produces those of their same species. And once they produce their same species, although they are the same, they might mix with different trait of partner to form of DNA sequence of a particular gene.
4. Species, Population and Species- In order to have a population, we need to have species first. But in order to have species to form a population, they need to have a good niche. A niche is a condition where a species live in and has abundant resources to provide to them in order for them to form a population.
