Trả lời

【Câu trả lời】: D<br />【Gi thích】: Câu hỏi đề cập đến mộtả thuyết của các nhà nghiên cứu về mối quan hệ giữa kích thước cơ thể và nhạy cảm với tín hiệu cảnh báo của kẻ săn mồi từ các loài khác. Theo giả thuyết, các loài có kích thước cơ thể nhỏ hơn sẽ có nhạy cảm hơn với tín hiệu cảnh báo từ các loài khác. Lựa chọn D, "M. collaris displayed predator-avoidance behavior in response to T. caesius alarm calls played by Martinez and colleagues, whereas S. grossus did not," trực tiếp hỗ trợ giả thuyết này bằng cách chỉ ra rằng M. collaris (có kích thước nhỏ hơn) đã tránh kẻ săn mồi khi nghe tín hiệu cảnh báo từ T. caesius, trong khi S. grossus (có kích thước lớn hơn) không.
