TPO38 Task3

Task3

Explain how the example of the mite and hummingbird in the lecture, illustrates the concept of phoresy.

Reading

Phoresy

Animals often have to move from place to place to obtain resources. Most animals do so using their own physical effort, but animals of certain species may not be able to transport themselves efficiently in order to access the resources they need. These animals may make use of another animal species to transport them, without causing any injury to the other species. This relationship is known as phoresy. Phoresy, which is a temporary relationship, benefits the passenger species and causes little or no harm to the species doing the transporting.

Listening

Now , listen to part of a lecture on this topic in a biology class . So here’s a good example of this . Mites are very small insect like creatures . Mites live in tropical climates and feed on nectar and pollen and flowers . But these tropical flowers don’t last long . They wilt and fall off quickly . And so the mites need to find new flowers in order to get more nectar and pollen to eat . But the mites can’t fly . And they are so small that it would take them a while , and a lot of effort to climb down one flower , crawl to another one , and climb all the way up again . So how do they get to the next flower ? Well, where’s a bird ,the hummingbird. Hummingbirds eat the nectar from the same flowers as the mites . So When a hummingbird comes around and sticks its beak into the flowers to get the nectar out , the mites quickly climb onto the hummingbird . Well, as I mentioned , mites are pretty tiny . So the hummingbird isn’t harmed in any way . And all they do is stick to the hummingbird . Since the hummingbird also goes from flower to flower for nectar , it takes the mites along . Once the hummingbird gets to the next flower , the mites climb off and eat some pollen and nectar there on the new flower . Without the hummingbird , carrying them from one flower to another . The mites would find it much more difficult getting food .

1. Now, listen to part of a lecture on this topic in a biology class.

2. So here’s a good example of this.

3. Mites are very small insect-like creatures.

4. Mites live in tropical climates and feed on nectar and pollen in flowers.

5. But these tropical flowers don’t last long.

6. They wilt and fall off quickly.

7. And so the mites need to find new flowers in order to get more nectar and pollen to eat.

8. But the mites can’t fly.

9. And they are so small that it would take them a while, and a lot of effort to climb down one flower, crawl to another one, and climb all the way up again.

10. So how do they get to the next flower?

11. Well, there’s a bird, the hummingbird.

12. Hummingbirds eat the nectar from the same flowers as the mites.

13. So when a hummingbird comes around and sticks its beak into the flowers to get the nectar out, the mites quickly climb onto the hummingbird.

14. Well, as I mentioned, mites are pretty tiny.

15. So the hummingbird isn’t harmed in any way.

16. And all they do is stick to the hummingbird.

17. Since the hummingbird also goes from flower to flower for nectar, it takes the mites along.

**18. Once the humming

bird gets to the next flower, the mites climb off and eat some pollen and nectar there on the new flower.**

19. Without the hummingbird carrying them from one flower to another, the mites would find it much more difficult getting food.

Fossil Phoresy is a way some animals use to use other animals to help them to transport themselves from a one place to another place to get their food to survive. The example is about an animal called mice. This animal eats food. In the example, there are mites that eat nectar and pollen from flowers, but these flowers to survive, but this kind of flower die very quickly, so they the mites need to change another flower. Another problem is find new flowers. However, the mice mites can't fly, and they are very tiny, it's very difficult making it hard for them to climb up and down a flower. So this bird called a hummingbird, they eat flowers. That's where the hummingbird comes in. Hummingbirds also feed on the same flower. So when flowers. When a hummingbird came, visits a flower, the mice tiny mites quickly climb up and stick to onto the bird, and the bird will take him bird. The hummingbird then flies to another flower, and they will get to once it arrives, the flower, mites can climb off and eat the mice will stay at the flower nectar and get the food. And that's Fossil.pollen there. This relationship is a perfect example of phoresy.

Forestry Phoresy is a strategy that some small animals use to get obtain food resources by relying on other animals when they are too small to carry food resources. for transport. The professor illustrated this concept using the concept by giving an example of mites, which is a kind of insect are tiny insects that cannot fly and fly. Since they are too small to climb up and down of flowers easily, they hitch a flower. So ride on hummingbirds. When a hummingbird visits a flower for nectar, the mites stick quickly climb onto it. Then, when the hummingbird moves to hummingbirds when they fly, stick to another flower, the flowers mites can jump off and leave when hummingbirds fly to another. So it would be an easy way for access new nectar and pollen. This way, the mites to can get food access.more easily without harming the hummingbird.

Martin

The professor talked about forestry with phoresy, using the example of mites and hummingbirds. The mite is a small animal Mites are tiny creatures that looks look for food in flowers. When a flower is old and has no food, the mite needs to find a new flower. If there is no food in an older Hummingbirds also visit these flowers for nectar. When a hummingbird comes to a flower, the mite will find another flower quickly climbs onto it. The hummingbird then flies to look for food. When the hummingbird is looking for flowers, the mite will fly to the hummingbird, and the hummingbird will arrive at another flower, so and when it arrives, the mite can go this way jump off and find food there. This way, the mite gets a ride to a new flower without harming the next flower.hummingbird, which is a great example of phoresy.

Fielder

In the reading, it explains what is ferocity. The ferocity phoresy is. Phoresy is a behavior that if where a creature that they need needs to transport or sort it, but they are not able to do that, they will find be transported finds another animal to help them do these things. this. The professor gave us an example of a hummingbird and the a mite. The mite is a little, very tiny creature, a fly. So these flies need creature that needs to find their resources in the flower, flowers, but the two flowers they need to go to is are too far for them to fly to. So reach on their own. So, they will find the get help of from the hummingbird. The hummingbird will also fly flies to another flower, different flowers, and the mites climb onto its body to travel with it. Since the mites are so tiny, they will climb into their body and go with the hummingbird. And because the mite is very tiny, so it won't don’t cause much pressure any harm to the hummingbird.

Progeny Phoresy is a temporal temporary relationship between animals. The animals always Animals often need to search for researchers, resources, but some animals cannot move by themselves, and so they will use the efforts of other animals' efforts, but animals without causing any harm. The A good example of this is a mite the relationship between mites and hummingbird. hummingbirds. Mites need to search for some find food in the flowers, but it will cost takes a lot of energy for mites them to move from one flower to another flower. another. Hummingbirds can take help by taking the mites between flowers, with them as they go from flower to flower. The mites climb onto the hummingbirds, and since they are so tiny, they don't harm the hummingbirds at all. This way, the hummingbirds help the mites reach new flowers where they can climb on hummingbirds find nectar and to another flower, and the mite is so tiny, so it will cause no harm for hummingbirds.pollen.

Sword

Forestry Phoresy refers to a type of behavior that some animals may use in order to get themselves out of a certain region help moving from one place to obtain another to find resources. The professor offers gives an example about involving mites. Mites are a type of tiny species who have no ability of flying, creatures that can't fly, but they mainly feed on flowers, which doesn't don't last too long. When they need to find food in another region, new flowers because their current region's food is depleted, ones are gone, they need to find look for a hummingbird who will to help them get to fly across other regions and reach another flower. Because hummingbirds themselves Hummingbirds also feed on the nectar of these flowers, and the weight of the since mites is too tiny, are so this small, they don't weigh much and won't harm the hummingbirds, hummingbird. The hummingbird goes from flower to flower, and the mites can survive this and lessen their weight.hitch a ride, allowing them to reach new food sources more easily.

Wesley

Phoresy is a kind of temporary relationship between two different animal species where one animal and another. They are in benefits without harming the different species and this relationship does not have any injury or harm. other. In the lecture, the professor give the gives an example of forsythia involves two species which has involving mites and hummingbirds. And in the wild, the mites Mites live in the flower flowers and once they need to go to another flower, feed on nectar and pollen, but they are too tiny, tiny to move easily from one flower to another. They can't fly, so it's difficult for them when a hummingbird comes to the flower to eat the nectar, the mites quickly climb onto the hummingbird. As the hummingbird moves from flower to flower, it carries the mites with it. Once the hummingbird reaches a new flower, the mites can climb off and climb up to another flower. So there's a bird access the nectar and then the hummingbirds also eat this kind of flower. Once the hummingbird comes, pollen there. This relationship helps the mites can quickly get on the birds and climb off when the birds.food more easily.

Vicky

Phoresy is a relationship between the animals who that can transport by themselves with and those that cannot. In this case, the animals who can't transport by themselves. And it will take no harm for example of the stronger animals. And they mite and the hummingbird illustrates this concept well. Mites are given an example about the mites and harming birds. And the mites is a kind of animals who tiny creatures that live in the flowers and flowers, but they can't fly. So it's fly, which makes it hard for them to fly up to move from one flower or to other another. Instead, they rely on hummingbirds, which feed on the same flowers. So When a hummingbird drinks nectar, the mites quickly climb onto it. Since the mites are so small, they will find don't harm the harming birds will take them hummingbird at all. The hummingbird then flies to the other flowers another flower, and the mites were too small. So it will bring no can get off and eat more nectar and pollen. This way, the hummingbirds help the mites reach new flowers without any harm for the harming birds.being done.

Victoria

And the whole The lesson is talks about one kind of a tie relationship between the animals animals, and the professor. He professor gave us some examples, like an example of the hummingbird with some insects. Like if and the insects want mites. The mites need to go to the other find new flowers to get some their food, but since they need to go on can't fly, they climb onto the hummingbird with when it visits the flowers. And most of The hummingbird doesn't get hurt by this; instead, it helps the time, if they want some other food, mites travel from one flower to another. When the hummingbird will help them goes to carry a new flower, the mites can get off and eat the nectar and pollen there. This relationship is called phoresy, and it and put it in helps the other flowers.mites get food more easily.

Tina

The lecture talks about phoresy, which is talking about foraging. It is that make use of other when one animal species uses another to help transport them without causing an injury to other species. It harm. A great example given is like passenger species about mites and transport species. And in the lecture, the professor gives an example about meat hummingbirds. The mites can't fly and hummingbird. The meat, they traditionally can't live very long. They need to find new flowers. And flowers quickly because the meat, flowers they can't fly. So they feed on wilt fast. So, when a hummingbird comes to drink nectar from these flowers, the tiny mites climb onto the hummingbird without hurting it. As the hummingbird goes from flower to flower, it carries the mites along with it. This way, the mites can easily reach new flowers to get into more food. This relationship benefits both the next flower mites, who get transported to new food sources, and the hummingbird coming around and sticking hummingbird to the next flowers. So the meat will be difficult to hummingbirds, who don’t get food. And this action can benefit both meat and hummingbird.harmed at all.

Leon

Forestry Phoresy is a way that some animals do not have enough emphasis transport way to animals, like mites, get the food. So they just use help from other animals to transport find food. Mites need nectar and pollen from flowers, but they can’t fly and the flowers don’t last long. So, they use hummingbirds to help them get from one flower to another. When a hummingbird visits a flower to drink nectar, the mites quickly climb onto the hummingbird. This doesn’t harm the hummingbird at all. The hummingbird goes from flower to flower, and when it reaches a new flower, the mites can jump off and eat. This relationship helps the mites get food and do not harm each other anymore. And the hummingbird is a way for the mite to use the forestry behavior. And because mite also need food like the flowers and that time they do not have enough time to get to another flowers. So because the flower is fall very quickly so they just use the hummingbird to get to another flowers and do not hurt it anymore.more easily.

Cicily

Animals often obtain resources by using their physical effects. There are some kinds of effort. Some animals which can’t move efficiently to get the resources they need, so they rely on other animals are not used to help transport them without causing harm. A good example of this is the resources. Also it is not harmful for the transporting. So there is an example for the meat relationship between mites and the homing birds. Animals hummingbirds. Mites want to get some resources nectar and pollen from the flowers because flowers, but they are dirty. It is can't fly, and it’s hard for them to get crawl from one flower to another. They depend on hummingbirds, which can fly from flower to flower. When a hummingbird drinks nectar from a flower, the resources to move mites quickly climb onto the hummingbird. This way, the hummingbird carries them to the next flower. It depends on flower, where they can get more nectar and pollen. Without the homing birds. Because hummingbird, the homing birds can fly from this flower to the next flower. So the meat can run faster to get to the next flower.mites would have a much harder time finding food.

Steven

Commonly, animals Animals often need to move from one place to another place around to find more food. Some animals, food, but some animals can't transport themselves efficiently. get around easily. For example, the mite. The mite mites live near flowers because they feed on nectar and pollen. However, flowers don't last long, so the flowers, because flowers are their food. But flowers fall off quickly, so they mites need to find other flowers new ones quickly. Since mites can't fly and it would take them a long time to eat. But crawl from one flower to another, they can't transport themselves efficiently, so when hitch a ride on hummingbirds. The hummingbirds, which also feed on the same flowers, act like taxis for the mites. When the hummingbird goes to another flower, the mites can jump off and eat there. This way, the mites get the food they want need without having to move to another place, they get on the hummingbird. So hummingbirds, just like the taxi, when the mite finds the flower, they just get down the bird.their own.

4EC Phoresy is a relationship between animals, that is, animals make where one species makes use of another animal species to transport them without causing injury to other species, and it usually any harm. This often happens when animals need to move to other different places to obtain find resources or food. As For example, the professor gave an example, that is, talked about mites and hummingbirds. Mites rely on the flowers, they eat flowers, flowers for food, but these kind of flowers wilt and fall over off quickly, so they must the mites need to find other new flowers to live. But ones. However, because mites are very small, they can't transport themselves move to other flowers, so flowers on their own. Instead, they can make use of hummingbirds. And when hummingbirds eat to help them. When a hummingbird feeds on the flowers, the mite will mites quickly climb up onto the hummingbird. Then, when the hummingbird flies to another flower, it takes the mites with it. Once they arrive at the new flower, the mites can climb off and eat the nectar and pollen there. Without the hummingbird, and the hummingbird will take off and take it would be much harder for the mites to other flowers, and it can...find food.

August

The concept of the theraphy phoresy is that when animals are not able to get the cannot obtain resources by themselves, you themselves and need to ask another species for help. And this This is the a temporary relationship that we will benefit benefits the passengers, but passenger species without injuring harming the species that help helps them. And here is an example the lecturer For example, as mentioned in the lecture, is that mites. Mites is a mites are very tiny and small species. They creatures that need to suck the horn in the flower, but access nectar from flowers. However, because they are too so small, so they have to ask cannot move between flowers easily. So, they rely on hummingbirds for help. When a hummingbird feeds on the nectar from flowers, the mites quickly climb onto the hummingbird. As the hummingbird for help. So while moves from flower to flower, it carries the hummingbird also needs to suck from mites along with it. Once they reach a new flower, the flowers, they'll come with the hummingbird, and when they go to flowers by flowers, they'll suck the horn that the hummingbird gets, and they'll mites can then get the resources together, but nectar and pollen they need, all without harming the hummingbird is failing.hummingbird.

Camilia

is about the transporting and The example of phoresy involves how some animals transport themselves to find resources. In this case, we have mites that means there's animal and form place to place obtained resources and use their own efforts and there is example for the mice. The mice maybe they live in the flowers and they cannot last so long so because they can fly so they on flowers. These mites need to use their own effort find new flowers for nectar and pollen, but they can't fly, which makes it hard for them to move from one flower to another. So, they rely on hummingbirds for help. When a hummingbird comes to the other flowers but it's kind of difficult for them but actually how can they move same flower to eat nectar, the other so that can depend on mites quickly climb onto the hummingbird. The hummingbird can help then flies to another flower, and the mice to come from one flowers to the others because when the hummingbird are reach the same flower as the mice so the mice can move to the hummingbird and make fly to the other and when the hummingbird move to the other flowers so the mice can down and they mites can easily get off and find food there. This relationship benefits the mites since they get a ride to reach so that will be more easier for thenew flowers without harming the hummingbird.

Selina

Quarantine Phoresy is a relationship that the where one animal make use of species uses another animal species to help transport them without causing any injury to other species. The harm. In the lecture, the professor gives an example, the mice, example of mites, which is a small animal, and it is the are tiny creatures that live in tropical flower, but the flower don't flowers. These flowers don’t last long, and since the mice can't fly and it is small, so it mites can’t fly, they have a hard time moving from one flower to another. However, when a hummingbird comes to drink nectar from the flowers, the mites quickly climb down onto the flower and move to the other flower and climb up again. But when hummingbird. As the hummingbird flies to another flower, it takes the mites with it. Once they reach the next flower, the mites can climb off and get the next flower nectar and come around, the mice will climb to pollen they need. Without the hummingbird, and since it would be much harder for the hummingbird get the flower and move mites to another, it will let the mice alone, and the mice will much difficult to get the find food.

Alice

I want to talk about how some certain animal species may not be able to transport themselves efficiently in order to across access the resource resources they need. And also in In the lecture, the professor mentioned gave an example of the meat mites and the hummingbird. The meat always Mites live in the flower on flowers, but these flowers don’t last long and they stay in the flower for a long time. But the flowers always die quickly. So This means the meat needs mites need to find new flowers. But flowers to get more nectar and pollen. Since they need to can’t fly, they climb on these flowers. So onto the hummingbird will help them. These meat climb on for help. When the hummingbird and they come visits a flower to drink nectar, the mites quickly climb onto it. The hummingbird then carries them to another flowers by this hummingbird. And hummingbirds always go flowers flower, allowing the mites to flowers. But however, if get food more easily. Without the meat climbed hummingbird, it would be much harder for the mites to move from one flower to another, it will be much more difficult by themselves. So it's a really good idea.another. This relationship illustrates the concept of phoresy well.

Michael

Fallacy refers that if the Phoresy is when an animal wants to get a resource needs resources but they can't get a resource them by themselves, they can use other ways by other animals. And to avoid itself, so it relies on another animal for help. In the harming, they have the relationship like fallacy. And in Lesley, lecture, the professor gave us an example. example of mites and hummingbirds. The maids, she needs mites need to eat the food nectar and the resource on the flowers. But pollen from flowers, but they can't fly because they are very so small. And climb Climbing down one flower and down again and again. It's so difficult up to another is really tough for them. So there are birds, hummingbirds. That's where hummingbirds come in. When they want hummingbirds go to get food, they will come on to nectar from the flowers, the mites quickly climb onto them. The hummingbird and then carries the hummingbird will carry them mites to another flowers to flower, where they can eat. This way, the mites get food. And their food without harming the maids will stay on the hummingbird carefully. They may not hit each other. hummingbirds at all. This relationship is a fallacy.great example of phoresy.

Joyce

Fluoresce Phoresy is a way that some animals make use of another animal species to transport help them get to other different places. And In the lecture, the professor gives an example talks about the mites and the hummingbirds. The mites was leaving the leave their flowers, but actually they sometimes need to find new ones. However, the mites are really small and can't fly. So, when they need to find some new flowers. However, move, they look for a bird, like a hummingbird. When a hummingbird comes to a flower to drink nectar, the mites is too small and they can't fly. So at that time, they will find a bird, a hummingbird. And when the hummingbird is close to the flower and they will come into quickly climb onto the bird. So the bird will take the mites along The hummingbird then flies to another flower, and the mites will be get carried to along with it. Once they arrive at the new flower, the mites can climb off and eat the nectar and pollen there. This way, the hummingbird helps the mites find some other flowers.food without being harmed.

Bobby

In the lecture, it talks about the professor explains the concept of recessive. It's phoresy, which is a relationship between two different species of animals. In He gives the lesson, the professor talks about two species. Mice example of mites, which are too very small and they need to eat flour nectar and pollen from flowers. Since mites can’t fly and are too tiny to move easily from one flower to another, they rely on hummingbirds to help them. When a hummingbird visits a flower for food. Because it's too small, it can't transport, so it needs nectar, the mites quickly climb onto the hummingbird. The hummingbird then moves to another special bird. It's called hummingbirds. Hummingbirds will carry flower, taking the meat mites with it. Once the hummingbird gets to other places the next flower, the mites can climb off and eat. This way, the mites can find food more easily, thanks to find food.the hummingbird.

Keven

In the writing reading passage, the writer proclaims it explains that the ferocity, which phoresy is a temporary relationship and that benefits passengers, species, and causes the passenger species while causing little or no harm to species during transport. the transporting species. In the lecture, the professor illustrates gives an example of this with mites and hummingbirds. Mites are tiny creatures that feed on nectar and pollen from tropical flowers, which don’t last long. Because the phenomenon with an example. For instance, the mice, which will take the use of the tropical flower. Then because of the tropical flower will flowers die quickly, so the mites need to find new ones, but they have to transport it. But the mice is very tiny, can't fly and it would be difficult for take them too long to climb down one flower. So flower and up to another. So, they have a friend, harming birds, the hummingbird, which will take helps them out. When the mice long fly one hummingbird drinks nectar from the flowers, the mites quickly climb onto the hummingbird. The hummingbird then flies to another flowers, flower, and then when it will gets there, the mites can jump off and eat more nectar and pollen. This way, both the mites and the hummingbird benefit each other.from the relationship.

Carol

First, we will let's explain what is phoresy is. It's a source OC. It's temporary relationships. It transports relationship where one animal species gets transported by another without harming it. In the resource, transports between the resource and its animals to come to other bodies and to make another, come to another animals that maybe they are little or no harmer for others. Then in this lecture, they have a good example is that this the mite and the hummingbird. The mite is animal is mice. He want very small and wants to create move from flowers, but he is so small, so that he flower to flower to find food. However, it can't go through fly and would struggle to crawl from these two flowers. Then they have the harming birds. This mice maybe can one flower to come, to climb in this birds and to let another. So, it climbs onto a hummingbird when the bird comes to transfer for them than drink nectar from the flowers. The hummingbird isn't harmed at all by the mite being on it. As the hummingbird moves from flower to another flower, but it takes the mite with it. Once they don't harm them.reach a new flower, the mite can climb off and eat the nectar and pollen there. Without the hummingbird, the mite would have a much harder time finding food.

Joe

Deforestation, which Phoresy is a temporary relationship which that benefits a passenger species and causes little or no harm to one species, the species of passenger, without harming the transporting. The other species, the transporter. In the lecture, the professor provides gives an instance example of mites and hummingbirds. So hummingbirds Mites live on flowers that wilt quickly, and since they can't fly, they need help getting to new flowers to find nectar. When a hummingbird comes to feed on the nectar, the mites are climb onto the same flower species which fall quickly. So for hummingbird. This way, the mites, hummingbird carries the mites spend to a lot of energy to new flower. Once they arrive at the new flower, the mites can climb on off and eat the flower, but nectar and pollen. This relationship is beneficial for the mites because it is difficult. So they climb on helps them access more food without harming the hummingbird and the hummingbird will carry them to the new position for eating new flowers and the mite will stick on the hummingbird and they eat new when they change to a new position. It will not bring harm.hummingbird.

Karl

In this topic, they talk about an discuss the academic term of phoresy. This phoresy means an 'phoresy.' Phoresy refers to when one animal is transported by another animal without enjoying causing harm to the transported transporting animal, no harm but benefit for benefiting the passenger animal. species. The example in from the lecture is a mite. It's about mites. Mites often having food feed on flower, nectar from flowers, but the mite they can't fly. When they climb Climbing down from one flower and then up and don't want to move to another flower, they need to climb down takes a lot of time and still climb up. It's a waste of time. So they have hummingbirds. effort. That's where hummingbirds come in. Hummingbirds came to visit the same flower flowers as the mites go. The birds will take and, when they feed on nectar, the mites quickly climb onto the hummingbirds. This way, the hummingbirds help the mites get to new flowers, allowing them to save time and access more food. Without hummingbirds, it would be much harder for the mites to another flower. So the mites can save a lot of time. Without hummingbirds, mites can't move easily.easily from flower to flower.

So, fourthly, there is a behavior between among animals which where some animals species cannot transport themselves very effectively. You will They find some ways to go along together travel with some other animals. Here is In this example. The example, the professor exposes the example talks about mites, which the mite is are very small and it's going live on the flowers. They stay in the flowers, but the flower can't stay really long. A flower will However, these flowers don't last very long; they wilt and fall off really quickly, but mites, quickly. Mites can't fly, and being so tiny, it can't fly and it's very tiny. So it costs would take them a lot of energy if it just comes to climb down from a one flower to another flower. So here is a bird, another. So, we have the harming bird. hummingbird. When the harming bird is going around with hummingbird visits the flower, flowers to drink nectar, the mite will get on with tiny mites quickly climb onto the bird. And also Since the mite is mites are so tiny that it won't small, they don't harm the bird anymore. Then the mite just sticks on the bird, and hummingbird at all. Then, when the bird goes hummingbird moves to another flower, it just jumps down, the mites can jump off and then get the mite goes to another flower.nectar and pollen they need. Without the hummingbird carrying them, the mites would have a much harder time finding food.

of fairies Phoresy is when some animals need help to transport themselves to find resources efficiently, and they can transport their resource efficiently, so they will make use of rely on other species help them. And here is for assistance. One example is mites. And this kind of animals the relationship between mites and hummingbirds. Mites are very small creatures that get their resources from flowers. However, flowers can wilt quickly, and since mites can't fly, they get the resource have difficulty moving from the flower and the one flower they are quickly run out. And the mites they can't fly so it's difficult for them to transport themselves in one flower to another flower. So they another. They need help from other animals help. And this kind of animal is cumene birds. And this kind of birds they will help and carry animals, like hummingbirds. Hummingbirds feed on the nectar from the same flowers as the mites. When a hummingbird drinks nectar, the mites go quickly climb onto it. The hummingbird then carries the mites to another flowers. And if they without the birds help they will be difficult next flower, allowing them to carry.get more food. Without the hummingbirds' help, the mites would struggle to find new flowers.

In the reading procedure, it introduces us a theory reading, we learn about ferocity. And this introduces us what phenomena the concept of phoresy, which describes how some animals that can't move efficiently on their own rely on other animals who can't transport by themselves, can't transport by others and for transportation without injures other animals. causing harm. In the lecture, the there's a great example is about involving mites. Those mites are small These tiny animals creatures feed on nectar and they eat flowers. But pollen from flowers, but since those flowers in hot climates wilt quickly, the hot climate will die quickly mites need help getting to new flowers. Hummingbirds, which also feed on the same flowers, come along and they need the mites climb onto them. The hummingbirds then transport the mites to be transported by the next flower, allowing the mites to access more food without harming the hummingbirds.

You will see that In the 3D printer has made use lecture, we learn about how mites rely on hummingbirds for transportation, which is a great example of phoresy. Mites are tiny and can't fly, so they need help getting from one flower to another to find nectar and pollen. When a hummingbird visits a flower, the spaces mites quickly climb onto it without hurting the bird. The hummingbird then flies to transport without injury to other spaces. The profanity and danger of the mice another flower, and the hummingbirds. The mice always live in the forest mites can climb off and they can't fly. The hummingbirds eat there. This relationship shows how one species can help them to come forward and improve their lives.another without causing harm, which is exactly what phoresy is about.

The phoresis means the action that sometimes some Phoresy is when certain animal species of the animal, they can transport themselves to use another place and they will use some help from the other animal to help them get to transport it. And this action is a different place without causing any injuries. And harm. In the example in the lecture is lecture, we learned about the mite mites and hummingbird. hummingbirds. The mites need to find flowers for food, but they can't move easily on their own. So, they get a ride on hummingbirds, which also feed on the flower for food and it is hard for themselves to transport it. So they will use some help from same flowers. When the hummingbird when they are transported because they eat goes from one flower to another, the same food. So when the hummingbirds are transported, they can also find the food at the same time. And because mites climb on and travel along. Since the mites are very so small, so during the whole process, the hummingbird won't injure or doesn't hurt them at all.all during this process. This relationship benefits the mites by helping them find food more easily.

animals Animals often travel to and other different places using other animals without injuring them. causing them harm. This phenomenon is called Farsi phoresy, and here we take mice can use mites as an example. The mice Mites are very tiny animals creatures that live in the flowers, but these flowers but this kind of flower falls very quickly wilt quickly, so the mice mites need to find another flower but new flowers. However, it takes them a long time to get crawl from one flower to another flower by on their own. So, they climb onto hummingbirds when the mice itself so it will get into birds come to drink nectar. The hummingbirds then take the hummingbirds and stick on it and the hummingbirds will take them mites along to get to another the next flower. When it arrives Once they arrive at another flower the mice will get new flower, the mites can climb off and feed on the nectar and then stay in the flower so that this phenomenon pollen there. This is called the Farsi by how phoresy works, with mites traveling through the hummingbirds to get to reach the places flowers they want.need.

In the reading part, reading, we can know learn that certain some animals don't have able to can't transport by themselves. And in themselves efficiently. In the listening part, lecture, the doctor said professor explains that they have some there are special animals that help them. For example, the mites can't move to help them to transport this thing. And just like the flower, they can't transport new flowers by themselves, but they can hitch a ride on hummingbirds. When a hummingbird feeds on nectar from a flower, the honeybee can help them. Just like to add mites quickly climb onto it. Then, as the hummingbird goes from one flower to another another, it carries the mites along. Once they reach a new flower, this the mites can get off and eat. This relationship is a good way to help them to transport. And also, some flowers add to the other flowers, so the honeybees will be able to transport. But the important point is that they are very difficult to gather the food and it's not good beneficial for the honeybee. But it's also good for mites because it helps them find food, and it doesn’t harm the flowers to transport them.hummingbird at all.

Alright, the concept of Thoracic phoresy is when one passenger species use uses another to transport them to another places different places, and this relationship just happen in once. Ok, and the usually happens temporarily. The professor gives gave us the two species which is example of the mite and the hummingbird. The mite want to climb up to flower and it is quite difficult to them to get has difficulty moving from one flower to another because it can't fly. The hummingbird helps the next flower and mite by visiting the same flowers to get nectar. When the hummingbird drinks nectar, the mite quickly climbs onto it. This doesn't harm the hummingbird at all. The hummingbird then flies to another flower, and once it gets there, the mite can help them climb off and eat nectar and pollen. So, without the hummingbird, the mite would find it much harder to get to the other flower because as the professor said the mite are really smart, it isn't harm hummingbird and if one to climb upfood.

In the reading passage, it introduces the concept of fluorescence. Fluorescence phoresy. Phoresy means that some animals can't move themselves efficiently to find resources efficiently, resources, so they use other animals to help them move themselves. But they wouldn't hurt transport themselves without harming the other animals. In the lecture, the professor used mice mites as an example. Mice Mites usually live in the on flowers, but the resources on the these flowers can't don't last a long time, long, so they should need to move to another flower. But they can't, However, mites can't fly, so they usually often use hummingbirds to help them. When hummingbirds come to the flowers, they just need to stick to flowers for nectar, the mites quickly climb onto the hummingbirds. And Then, when the hummingbirds find go to another flower, the mites can climb off and eat the nectar and pollen there. This relationship benefits the mites, as they just off.get food without having to travel long distances on their own.

According to the lecture, foresee phoresy refers to the action that animals transport by utilizing other animals relationship where one animal uses another to get transported without hurting them. And from harming it. In the lecture, we can know learn that mice, which is mites are tiny creatures that cannot fly and can't fly, need to eat the feed on flowers. But However, the flowers are often high up, which makes it difficult for the mites to reach them. So, they eat are very high, but they can't fly. So they take many birds, hitch a ride on hummingbirds, which also eat feed on the same flowers. When the hummingbird drinks nectar from the flowers, the mites quickly climb onto the bird. Then, when the hummingbird moves to take them another flower, the mites can hop off and eat there too. This way, the mites can easily travel from one flower to another thanks to the flowers. And while the birds are eating the flowers, they can go down the birds and eat the flowers too. And when the birds go away, they can also go on the birds to transport to another flowers. And through this method, they can easily transport.hummingbird.

means Phoresy is a term of which means um that describes a relationship where one species animals while using of animal uses another species animals to help transport resource them to resources. In this case, the mites need to get to flowers to collect nectar and other predators rather than um get this resource directly because pollen, but they can't and fly or move quickly on their own. So, they didn't have this ability rely on hummingbirds. When a hummingbird visits a flower for nectar, the tiny mites climb onto it. The hummingbird then flies to got this resource directly in this example this mite want another flower, taking the mites along with it. This way, the mites can get to got new flowers without harming the flowers but they couldn't and they haven't this ability to obtain this resource so they were using hummingbird, as the hummingbird this hummingbird could follow fly and surround these flowers so they could got this flowers resource and then doesn't even notice they're there. This relationship helps the mite would using this hummingbird and you got the resource from hummingbirds so it could get flowers directly and no harm because this is no harm for hummingbirds and mitesmites reach their food more easily.
