Consider the following:
- Carabid beetles
- Centipedes
- Flies
- Termites
- Wasps
Parasitoid
species are found in how many of the above kind of organisms?
(a). Only two
(b). Only three
(c). Only four
(d). All five
Explanation:
Parasitoid species are indeed found in flies, some beetles (like carabid beetles), and wasps.
Centipedes and termites do not typically
have parasitoid species.
●
Centipedes are predators
themselves, typically hunting and consuming other invertebrates.
●
Termites are primarily
detritivores, feeding on dead plant matter.
The correct answer is: (b)
