After the aswan high dam was built on the nile river, the rate of parasitic worm infection doubled in the human population near the dam. as a result of building the dam, the flow of the nile changed. this changed the habitat, which resulted in an increase in its population of a certain aquatic snail. the snails, which were infected, released larvae of the worm. these larvae then infected humans. this situation best illustrates that:

Need ! will give 20 points! what are two ways that diatoms differ from slime molds? the external coverings of diatoms are made up of (silica, chitin or peptidoglycan), while slime molds have cell walls containing (silica, peptidoglycan or chitin). diatoms are (chemoheterotrophs, photoautotrophs or chemoautotrophs) because they make food through photosynthesis, while slime molds are (heterotrophs, phototrophs or autotrophs) because they eat decaying plant matter.
