Apatch of weeds growing on soil in early summer may be exhibiting a. interspecific competition b. predation c. mutualism d. parasitism

a. interspecific competition

Explanation:

Interspecific competition is a form of association between plants species in which different plant species of the same genera or different genera compete with the same resources in the ecological community e.g water, food, sunlight etc. In the early summer, the growth of patches of weeds is exhibiting this term known as interspecific competition because  competing for the same resources in order to thrive well than one another.

Answer is A, interspecific competition.

Explanation:

Interspecific competition is considered as a type of competition whereby members of different species compete for the available shared resource.

In this case, the patch of weeds growing on soil at that period comprises of members of different species, and they are all competing the available shared resource.

The types of interspecific competition include

* Predation a situation whereby one organism kills the other for food. e.g Lion and antelope.

*  parasitism... situation where one organism depends on another for survival,and in the process,  causing damages to the host organism. e.g Dog and tick.

* commensalismone organism depends on another only for food and protection without causing harm to the other organism. e.g shark and remora fish.

* mutualism...both organisms contribute and benefit from the relationship. Alga and fungi in lichen.

it enhances antibody production by t cells of the adaptive immune system.

hope i'm right

explanation:

step 1: initiation

initiation is the beginning of transcription. it occurs when the enzyme rna polymerase binds to a region of a gene called the promoter. this signals the dna to unwind so the enzyme can ‘‘read’’ the bases in one of the dna strands. the enzyme is now ready to make a strand of mrna with a complementary sequence of bases.

step 2: elongation

elongation is the addition of nucleotides to the mrna strand. rna polymerase reads the unwound dna strand and builds the mrna molecule, using complementary base pairs. there is a brief time during this process when the newly formed rna is bound to the unwound dna. during this process, an adenine (a) in the dna binds to an uracil (u) in the rna.

step 3: termination

termination is the ending of transcription, and occurs when rna polymerase crosses a stop (termination) sequence in the gene. the mrna strand is complete, and it detaches from dna.
