Which of the following statements are TRUE about regional climates in relation to the equator? A Climates in the subtropics are always dry. B Climates south of the equator are all tropical. C All climates near the equator are warm. D All tropical climates are really rainy and humid.

The best answer to this would be C, that all climates near the equator are warm.

Explanation:

A does not work, because there are many exceptions, such as central Florida, which is recognized as a humid subtropical area. B is also incorrect because of Antarctica, and as for D, there exist many areas in India and Africa which are considered tropical, but are not particularly rainy or humid. On average, temperatures in low equatorial areas are 73-88 degrees F, which can be considered relatively warm by any standard.

parasites can detrimentally affect their host, but also must not allow their host to die before they can complete their life cycle. some parasites have complex life cycles with many different hosts, and have had to find ways of persisting in many different environments during the change from one host to another. ectoparasites live outside the body of the host, and can more easily  disperse, but are  more exposed to predators, parasites, parasitoids. endoparasites live inside the body of the host, and are therefore protected from the outside environment. but they can be  attacked by the host's immune system. they have therefore developed  mechanisms for dispersal such as  complex life cycles.
