Vedclass · Answer

(D) Mimicry is an evolved resemblance between an organism and another object,often an organism of another species.$1$. Protective mimicry: Animals imitate other animals,plants,or natural objects to protect themselves from predators.$2$. Aggressive mimicry: Predatory animals mimic natural objects or other organisms so that their prey becomes confused,allowing the predator to attack or catch them easily.Since mimicry serves both the purpose of protection from predators and facilitating the attack on prey,the correct answer is both $(b)$ and $(c)$.
