Question

What enhances environmental resistance? 
A) the ability to resist disease and parasites 
B) a high reproductive rate 
C) a specialized niche 
D) the ability to compete for resources

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A specialized niche can enhance environmental resistance by allowing a species to occupy a specific ecological niche and avoid competition with other species. This can increase the chances of survival and successful reproduction. The ability to resist disease and parasites (A) also enhances environmental resistance, but is only one aspect of survival. A high reproductive rate (B) can be advantageous in certain situations, but may not necessarily enhance environmental resistance. The ability to compete for resources (D) may also be helpful, but competition can also lead to depletion of resources and can increase environmental stress.
