Answer:

<u><em>All of the above.</em></u>

Explanation:

1. Their watertight skin minimizes moistures loss: <em>Reptiles have a reputation that they are “slimy” when we touch and hold them; however, they have dry skin, which has even fewer glands than mammals or amphibians. The main special feature of their skin is that the epidermis is heavily keratinized with a layer, which also prevents water loss.</em>

2. Amphibians must lay eggs in water or in moist soil to reduce moisture loss: <em>Because amphibian eggs don't have an amnion, the eggs would dry out if they were laid on the land, so amphibians lay their eggs in water.</em>

3. Reptile egg shells are harder than amphibians' eggs: <em>Reptile eggs are coated with a leathery or brittle coating, and the animals that hatch from them are miniature versions of the full-sized animal parent. In contrast, amphibian eggs are transparent and jelly-like. The animals that hatch from them still must go through metamorphosis.</em>

valkas [14]

Addiction is a condition of compulsive drug seeking and use, even with negative consequences is a <u>true</u> statement.

Explanation:

Addiction to drugs is a chronic and a relapsing condition or disorder which results in compulsory drug seeking behavior and its continuous use despite knowing about or having negative consequences it can cause to the brain and the body systems.

This is both a medical and a mental illness due to repeatedly misusing drugs or other substances and a severe form of a spectrum of substance abuse disorders.

Addiction is classified under substance use disorder and is categorized as mild, moderate or severe according to the symptoms. The symptoms or the negative consequences of addiction are generally grouped as impaired control, risky use, social impairment, pharmacological criteria for drug tolerance or withdrawal.
