Woodpeckers and squirrels fight for nesting rights in the same holes and spaces in trees, while the lions and cheetahs of the African savanna fight for the same antelope and gazelle prey. Which of the following statements about these relationships is accurate? A. These are examples of competition because the organisms are fighting for resources.

B. These are examples of predation because the organisms are trying to take each other’s food and homes.

C. These are examples of predation because lions and cheetahs eat woodpeckers and squirrels.

D. These are examples of competition because no organisms are helped or harmed.

Explanation:

both of the cases the organisms are fighting for a resource

you are certainly talking about this picture:

a: is the label of the white square, it is showing the  replication fork, formed by helicase (d) ==> so it is the site of dna separation and replication 

b: is a new dna brand that is following directly the replication fork, so it is continuous ==> built continuously from 5' to 3

c: dna polymerase cannot replicate dna on its own, it needs the of their proteins, and one of them plays the role of a clamp which fixes  the dna with the dna template and increases  the processivity of the enzyme. ==>   stops polymerase from falling off the  template.

d: is the enzyme responsible for forming the replication fork (helicase) ==> unwinds and separates dna into two strands

e: is the delayed strand, it is built  in the opposite sense of the helicase, so dna will be built in fragments ==> built  fragments from 5' to 3 joins

and finally f: is the enzyme that builds  the new dna strand (dna polymerase) ==>   adds nucleotides to make a new dna helix.
