Question

6/21
what is mimicry?
copying a behavior or appearance
a mutualistic relationship where both organisms help each other
blending in with the environment
two different species changing in parallel

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze the definition of mimicry. Mimicry involves one organism copying the behavior or appearance of another (or a non - living model) for survival advantages like avoiding predators or attracting prey.

• The option "a mutualistic relationship where both organisms help each other" describes mutualism, not mimicry.
• "Blending in with the environment" is camouflage, not mimicry.
• "Two different species changing in parallel" is co - evolution, not mimicry.
• "Copying a behavior or appearance" matches the definition of mimicry.

Answer:

A. copying a behavior or appearance
