Which of the following is a testable hypotheses?

Which example describes a mutualistic relationship between organisms? young wasps prey on caterpillars. crabs eat the remains of dead fish. tapeworms feed on food in the intestines of cats ants protect a tree on which they feed.

Female luna moths (actias luna) attract males by emitting chemical signals that spread through the air. a male hundreds of meters away can detect these molecules and fly toward their source. the sensory organs responsible for this behavior are the comblike antennae visible in the photograph shown here. each filament of an antenna is equipped with thousands of receptor cells that detect the sex attractant. based on what you learned in this chapter, propose a hypothesis to account for the ability of the male moth to detect a specific molecule in the presence of many other molecules in the air. what predictions does your hypothesis make? design an experiment to test one of these predictions.
