Herbivores are organisms that feed on plants. Plants have different mechanisms of defending against herbivores, mostly by synthesizing compounds that give the plants a bitter or unpleasant taste. The synthesis of these molecules is intensified when the plant and its cells suffer physical damage, so, in the case of peeled potatoes, there should be an increase in activity of this protective enzyme.

Describe the positive and negative interactions that affect populations in the tundra ecosystem
SCORPION-xisa [38]
Living organisms in any biome interact through a variety of relationships. Organisms compete for food, water, and other resources. Predators hunt their prey. Some organisms coexist in mutually beneficial relationships (symbiosis), while others harm organisms for their own benefit (parasitism). Still others benefit from a relationship that neither helps nor harms the other organism (commensalism).

Animals found in the Arctic tundra include herbivorous mammals (lemmings, voles, caribou, arctic hares, and squirrels), carnivorous mammals (arctic foxes, wolves, and polar bears), fish (cod, flatfish, salmon, and trout), insects (mosquitoes, flies, moths, grasshoppers, and blackflies), and birds (ravens, snow buntings, falcons, loons, sandpipers, terns, and gulls). Reptiles and amphibians are absent because of the extremely cold temperatures. While many of the mammals have adaptations that enable them to survive the long cold winters and to breed and raise young quickly during the short summers, most birds and some mammals migrate south during the winter

ikadub [295]

(Question 1 points 3)

No. There will be no water flow into or out of the fish without proper homeostatic processes. The body temperature of fish is regulated by the temperature of the water. the fishes only allow the solvent (water) to move across, but not the solutes. A fish is, after all, a collection of fluids floating in a fluid environment.

(Question 2 points 3)

The fish will not experience "bloating" or "dehydration” because in nature all organisms maintain normal conditions through homeostasis. It is the tendency toward a relatively stable equilibrium maintained by physiological processes by the body. Gills of fishes, enzymes help in maintain. Humans drink water in case of dehydration.

(Question 3 points 3)

Fish are the cold-blooded creatures of God. Most of the fishes cannot control their internal body temperature by themselves just like human beings. In order to stay at a normal and a healthy temperature, or to obtain temperature homeostasis, the fish seek warmer or colder water for water retention when they face the excessive water loss.
