The process of apoptosis, I believe, is when the tadpole's tail is reduced in size during metamorphosis.

In most animal phyla, metamorphosis actually takes place in conjunction with morphological, ecological, and physiological changes.

Marine invertebrates' larva behaves as a drifting tiny creature in the ocean, expanding its habitat distribution to find the best location for its survival.

When muscle cells undergo apoptosis, which is the final stage of their metamorphosis, they are split into membrane-bound muscle fragments and consumed by macrophages.

As a tadpole becomes a frog, apoptosis occurs. The cells in its tail are induced and it will be lost.

Some leaves modify into spines, how does this modification help plants survive?
barxatty [35]
Spines primarily have a protective function in plants. The spines can be sharp, and form a physical barrier against herbivores which may want to feed on the plant. Spines however also have other benefits. The spines on a jumping cactus allow segments of the cactus to stick to passing large animals or humans, thereby allowing the cactus to spread to other areas through asexual propagation. Spines are modified leaves, and spines have a much lower surface area than leaves, and therefore can reduce transpirative loss of water by the plant during harsh droughts. Some trees in alpine regions, such as pine trees, have developed spine-like leaves to prevent the accumulation of snow in the branches.
