Defensive Adaptations and Mimicry
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Aposematism is warning coloration advertising a defense; Batesian mimicry is a harmless species resembling a defended one; Mullerian mimicry is defended species converging on one warning pattern.
Show
A harmless hoverfly's yellow-and-black stripes mimic a stinging wasp's pattern, deterring predators that learned to avoid the wasp.
Watch for
Batesian mimicry needs a defended model nearby; Mullerian mimicry involves species that are each already defended.
