Answer: homeostasis.

Homeostasis is the regulation of the functions of some internal conditions as reaction to changes in the environment.

For example, although the external temparuture changes the matabolism is capable to keep the temperauture of the body constants through homeostasis.

That does not happen with the cold blooded animals. If you put a small frog very close to a hot ligthed bulb, its blood will not be able to keep it cool and it will  dry completely.

omeli [17]

Answer:

C. Organism living in the fallen trees lose shelter.

Explanation:

talking about the effects of storm winds falling trees, it creates more light to reach shorter plant which will help the plants to do photosynthesis well, which will even facilitate their fast growth; that's positive.

Fallen trees becoming food for decomposers can also be positive cause this will help the soil or earth of that forest have fertility

New Clearing attracting animals such as man can lead to extinction of forest which to conservators they feel like no-no-no-no that's they'd see it as a negative consequence of the wind storm effect, yes this can lead to de-sheltering of organisms inhabiting that niche(trees)

how are genes and proteins similar to homologus structure when determining evolutionary relationships among species?
KiRa [710]
Both are extremely similar but have small changes that make all of the difference.
You've probably heard about how our bone structure is similar to many other animals', and likewise about our DNA.

When you observe these small changes, you will find organisms similar to each other where one little thing changes, and then another organism where there's <em>another</em> change, but that first change is also present. You can interpret evolution over different species just by looking at what's different in the bone structure as well as the genes and proteins.
