The statement that the integument is strictly composed of the skin and It does not include the various accessory structures that may be present on or beneath the skin layers is False.

<h3>Composition of integument</h3>
  • Together with the underlying epidermal cells that secrete the cuticle, the cuticle and integument make up the skin.
  • The cuticle functions as the insect's exoskeleton, the location of muscle attachment, and the first line of protection against fungi, bacteria, predators, parasites, and environmental toxins, including pesticides.
  • The integument plays a role in behavior, osmoregulation, water control, eating, excretion, desiccation resistance, and as a food reserve.
  • The complexity of the structure and chemistry of an insect's integument as well as the unique ways in which it has been modified to work within its owner's environment serve as some indicators of the variety of roles that these coverings play.

How are land, air, water and living things impacted by too much carbon dioxide?
choli [55]

Answer:

- In terrestrial environments: increasing CO2 levels cause an increased photosynthetic rate

- In aquatic environments: increasing CO2 levels cause an increase in water acidity  

- In both terrestrial and aquatic environments: increasing CO2 levels lead to an overall increase in the average temperature (global warming)

Explanation:

In terrestrial ecosystems, rising carbon dioxide (CO2) levels increase the rate of photosynthesis (since CO2 is one of the reactants in photosynthesis), thereby also increasing plant growth. Moreover, in aquatic ecosystems, rising CO2 concentrations increase the levels of this gas dissolved on the surface of the oceans. This increases the acidity of the oceans, thereby modifying habitats and food web structures. The increasing acidity of the oceans also reduces the amounts of carbonate, which difficult for aquatic species (e.g., corals) to form their shells/skeletons. Finally, CO2 is a greenhouse gas that contributes to the increase in the average temperature by absorbing solar radiation that would otherwise have been reflected by the Earth's surface, and this increase in the temperature negatively affects life in both terrestrial and aquatic environments.
