The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding Adamsia, we need to analyze each statement provided about it: 1. **It is a parasite**: This statement is incorrect. Adamsia is not a parasite; it does not live off another organism in a harmful way. Instead, it has a mutualistic relationship with hermit crabs. 2. **It is an example of commensalism**: This statement is correct. Adamsia lives in association with hermit crabs, where it benefits from the crab's shell for protection and nutrients, while the crab is not significantly harmed or benefited by the presence of Adamsia. 3. **It is called sea anemone**: This statement is also correct. Adamsia is indeed a type of sea anemone, which belongs to the genus of sea anemones. 4. **It is called hermit crab**: This statement is incorrect. Adamsia is not a hermit crab; rather, it is a sea anemone that associates with hermit crabs. Now, let's summarize the findings: - Statements 2 and 3 are correct. - Statements 1 and 4 are incorrect. Thus, the answer code that corresponds to the correct statements is **b and c**. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify the nature of Adamsia**: Determine if it is a parasite, commensal, or something else. - Hint: Consider the relationship it has with other organisms. 2. **Evaluate each statement**: Check if each statement about Adamsia is true or false. - Hint: Recall definitions of parasitism and commensalism. 3. **Determine the correct statements**: Identify which statements are true based on your evaluation. - Hint: Focus on the mutual benefits in the relationship. 4. **Select the correct answer code**: Based on the true statements, find the corresponding answer code. - Hint: Look for combinations of correct statements.
