Interactions between animals

Create a paper on Chapter 12 (Brute Neighbors) on the book Walden by Henry David Thoreau. The paper should focus on the representation of animals and how Thoreau relates them to humans. The paper should have a clear thesis in the introduction paragraph. I think it would be easiest to focus on the ants, and the loon but you can use other examples in the chapter and I would strongly encourage it. You also must include at least 3 quotes from the chapter. PLEASE DO NOT cite any outside sources for this paper. You should only use the chapter to construct the essay.

I will also send a link in the chat to chapter 12 when I accept your bid.

Animals are categorise into ecological groups depending on how they obtain. Consume organic material, including carnivores, herbivores, omnivores, detritivores and parasites. Interactions between animals form complex food webs. In carnivorous or omnivorous species, predation is a consumer-resource interaction where a predator feeds on another organism . Selective pressures imposed on one another lead to Interactions between an evolutionary arms. Race between predator and prey, resulting in various anti-predator adaptations.

Almost all multicellular predators are animals.

Some consumers use multiple methods; for example, in parasitoid wasps, the larvae feed on the hosts’ living tissues. Killing them in the process, but the adults primarily consume nectar from flowers. Other animals may have very specific feeding behaviours, such as Interactions between hawksbill sea turtles primarily eating sponges.

Most animals rely on the biomass and energy produced by plants through photosynthesis. Herbivores eat plant material directly, while carnivores, and other animals. On higher trophic levels typically acquire it indirectly by eating other animals. Animals oxidize carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and other biomolecules to unlock. The chemical energy of molecular oxygen, which allows the animal to grow and to sustain biological processes such as locomotion. Animals living close to hydrothermal vents and cold seeps on the dark sea floor consume. Organic matter of archaea and bacteria produced in these locations through chemosynthesis.
