Provide an example of a prey defense, and explain how the defense helps the animal survive.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Injecting predator with noxious materials, or playing dead to trick a predator.

Explanation:

Some animals become main prey either due to the popularity of their own species, commonly food around its ecosystem, or unbalanced ecosystem in their area and so they become prey only because they are the only main source for them. In this case some prey defend themselves in order to stay alive even if it means death.

An example of prey defense, which increases the chances of survival, is camouflage.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Camouflage can be performed by animals (prey) that have colors very similar to the environment in which they are.
  • With this, they can hide in this environment, not being seen by the predator.
  • If the predator cannot see them, it cannot capture them and this increases the survival of those prey.

An example of this can be seen in brown moths that can camouflage themselves in tree branches of the same color.
