Part a during a field trip, an instructor gently touched a moth resting on a tree trunk. the moth raised its forewings to reveal brightly colored eyespots on its hind wings. the instructor asked why the moth lifted its wings. one student answere that sensory receptors had fired and triggered a neuronal reflex culminating in the contraction of certain muscles that ralsed the wings. a second student responded that the behavior frightens predators and that this allows the moth to escape. which statement best describes these explanations? the first explanation is biological, whereas the second is philosophical. oboth explanations refer to proximate causation. both explanations refer to ultimate causation. the first explanation refers to proximate causation, whereas the second refers to ultimate causation. the first explanation refers to ultimate causation, whereas the second refers to proximate causation. submit

Sea levels are rising due to climate change while increasing numbers of people are moving into coastal areas. to accommodate more people, there has been increased construction of beachfront resorts and condominiums. how is this impacting sea turtle numbers and biodiversity and why? a. the increased human population in coastal areas has meant that more food is available to the turtles (e.g., dropped food, waste from restaurants), which has led to an increase in the numbers and diversity of sea turtles. b. there has been very little change in the numbers and biodiversity of sea turtles because the planet is so vast that they can simply relocate to less crowded beaches. c. this has resulted in a decrease in numbers and diversity of sea turtles because it is restricting available nesting sites, and hence reproduction. d. this has resulted in an increase in numbers and diversity of sea turtles because people are around to protect them from natural predators.
