Answer:

Mimicry: Mimicry is a strategy that some organisms have for their survival. This consists of camouflaging themselves in their habitat so as not to be eaten by their predators. There are organisms that can mimic like their surroundings and others that can mimic like other animals and alienate their predators by making them believe they are poisonous for example.

plant defenses against herbivores: Plants have defense strategies against herbivores such as toxic organic compounds or the accommodation of other insects that defend them.

Coloration: The color warns predators about the presence of toxins that can poison them. These colors are generally vivid as red or yellow.
