Optimal foraging theory predicts that predators should include less prey categories in their diet (become specialists)…
a. where competitor density is high
b. where the environment is unproductive.
c. if prey handling times are long compared to search times.
d. if prey handling times are short compared to search times.

The correct option is : c. if prey handling times are long compared to search times.

Explanation:

The optimal foraging theory is a model that predicts the behavior of an animal, while searching for food. According to this theory, the diet of an animal predicts the forging strategy used by the animal. The forging strategy adopted by an animal involves maximizing the gained energy.  

According to the optimal foraging theory, predators with narrow diets have longer prey handling times as compared to search times. Such predators are known to have a specialist strategy of forging.

small, big, or no change could occur in the phenotype. it could cause something as simple as a cats ears to curl backwards or something as frighting as death. it could also occur in the protien-coding area and have an effect on that but no effect on the amino acids. what has to occur is a changing in the hox gene or the control gene.

picture a world where computers are building made-to-order personalized robotic arms and synthetic organs, drones are circulating above mars! due to the rapid growth of technology, the future has never been more unpredictable, and it presents a huge challenge in education: we are teaching students how to work in a future that we have never been unsure of. it is widely predicted that in eight years’ time, there will be more jobs in the fields of science, mathematics, technology and engineering than in any other discipline. and, as the technology continues to develop, it will soon become clear that addressing social problems will involve more innovative thinking, and analytical and technical knowledge than ever before. undeniably, there are no subjects that encourage innovative and creative thinking, deep thought, problem solving and independence more than the stem subjects. while it is widely commented on that there is a need to reimagine the ways stem subjects are taught in schools by embracing a more interactive and innovative approach to appeal to more students, it should come as no surprise that some of the most reputable educational organizations in the world are already implementing changes to embrace stem. harvard, for example, announced in 2014 that they were increasing their computer science faculty by over 50% and has since introduced computer science as a core subject for all freshmen. the urgency of supporting stem subjects at a young age is becoming more relevant than ever, as adopting a keen interest in the curricula needs to happen early. however, beyond the age issue is one of gender.
