Soapberry bugs are small relative to their host plants, and the bugs vary in their abilities to disperse. Although they have wings, many soapberry bugs have developed flight muscles and walk more often than they fly. In davis, where both balloon vines and golden rain trees are grown, would a dispersing bug likely have higher fitness than one with less developed flight muscles? Explain your answer.

   The right answer to this question is Yes

Explanation:

     These new bugs can still get resources, and these resources will maintain them alive, when the old ones will not survive because they are depleted. And with that, we can be sure that, the ones with less development won't get the resource they need to survive. And after that, when they die, the dispersing bug will be more common in this place because of the Natural Selection.

parasites can detrimentally affect their host, but also must not allow their host to die before they can complete their life cycle. some parasites have complex life cycles with many different hosts, and have had to find ways of persisting in many different environments during the change from one host to another. ectoparasites live outside the body of the host, and can more easily  disperse, but are  more exposed to predators, parasites, parasitoids. endoparasites live inside the body of the host, and are therefore protected from the outside environment. but they can be  attacked by the host's immune system. they have therefore developed  mechanisms for dispersal such as  complex life cycles.
