Answer to Question 1

ANS:Answer
should include:
 Succession is the process in which a disrupted climax community is re-established.
 The disruption makes the environment hostile and unsuitable for original species of the
community. The destruction of the original community opens up the habitat and the
niches within it to other species.
 A few tolerant species move into the area once the original community is gone. These
initial species then draw in other species that depend on them.
 Eventually the climax community will return to the area. New climax communities
develop when the disruption forever alters the environment.



Answer to Question 2

ANS:Answer
should include:
 Symbiotic relationships are the co-occurrence of two species. Their lives are closely
interwoven.
 Mutualism is a form of symbiosis that occurs when both organisms benefit in some way
from the relationship. This type of relationship is rare among marine organisms.
 Commensalism benefits the symbiont, but the host is neither helped nor harmed.
 Parasitism is when a symbiont uses a host for at least part of its life cycle to obtain food.
This is the most common relationship between organisms.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
