It is usually considered to be a form of learning involving the elimination of behaviours that are not needed by the animal.

Species that migrate to the UK in winter do so to escape the extreme cold in countries further north, which makes food difficult to find FundyTheFox https://padlet.com/FundyTheFox/ejrnm1argteu03l0/wish/1870223788 2021-11-05 15:19:28 UTC https://padlet.com/FundyTheFox/ejrnm1argteu03l0/wish/1870223788 Excretion; the process by which animals rid themselves of waste products and of the nitrogenous by-products of metabolism. Through excretion organisms control osmotic pressure—the balance between inorganic ions and water—and maintain acid-base balance.

Organisms use camouflage to mask their location, identity, and movement. This allows prey to avoid predators, and for predators to sneak up on prey FundyTheFox https://padlet.com/FundyTheFox/ejrnm1argteu03l0/wish/1875487848 2021-11-08 15:43:12 UTC https://padlet.com/FundyTheFox/ejrnm1argteu03l0/wish/1875487848 Unique movement; Animals move for a variety of reasons, such as to find food, a mate, a suitable microhabitat, or to escape predators. For many animals, the ability to move is essential for survival and, as a result, natural selection has shaped the locomotion methods and mechanisms used by moving organisms. For example, migratory animals that travel vast distances (such as the Arctic tern) typically have a locomotion mechanism that costs very little energy per unit distance, whereas non-migratory animals that must frequently move quickly to escape predators are likely to have energetically costly, but very fast, locomotion.

By damaging your immune system, HIV interferes with your body's ability to fight infection and disease.

Influenza is commonly called the flu, but it's not the same as stomach "flu" viruses that cause diarrhea and vomiting. For most people, the flu resolves on its own.

The bacteria that cause tuberculosis are spread from person to person through tiny droplets released into the air via coughs and sneezes. FundyTheFox https://padlet.com/FundyTheFox/ejrnm1argteu03l0/wish/1875551248 2021-11-08 16:02:35 UTC https://padlet.com/FundyTheFox/ejrnm1argteu03l0/wish/1875551248 Dutch elm disease (DED) causes wilt and death in all species of elm native to Minnesota. The disease is caused by the invasive fungal pathogen, Ophiostoma novo-ulmi, and occurs throughout Minnesota. Elm bark beetles spread the DED fungus when feeding. The DED fungus can spread from tree to tree through root grafts.

Mutualism is a common type of ecological interaction FundyTheFox https://padlet.com/FundyTheFox/ejrnm1argteu03l0/wish/1875563085 2021-11-08 16:06:13 UTC https://padlet.com/FundyTheFox/ejrnm1argteu03l0/wish/1875563085 Parasitism is a close relationship between species, where one organism, the parasite, lives on or inside another organism, the host, causing it some harm, and is adapted structurally to this way of life. The entomologist E. O. Wilson has characterised parasites as "predators that eat prey in units of less than one".

It is one of a family of common feeding behaviours that includes parasitism and micropredation and parasitoidism FundyTheFox https://padlet.com/FundyTheFox/ejrnm1argteu03l0/wish/1875568163 2021-11-08 16:07:44 UTC https://padlet.com/FundyTheFox/ejrnm1argteu03l0/wish/1875568163 Competition is a rivalry where two or more parties strive for a common goal which cannot be shared: where one's gain is the other's loss.
