What would most likely happen to a person who is not getting enough essential amino acids in his or her diet?
VMariaS [17]
If you don't ingest enough amino acids you would have difficulties synthesizing protein. Basically, there are 20 of them in the genetic code and they build into everything because they are combined into proteins. They are the second most found molecule in our body after water, and you need a lot of them. If you don't get them your body won't have enough protein and you can die if it becomes too extreme.

Nastasia [14]

Two different plants, one from the coniferous forests of Canada, and the other from the tropical rain forest of Belize, will look different, have different adaptations, and different way of functioning.

The plant from the coniferous forests of Canada will have thicker bark, leaves that are needle like, harder and thicker. These will be adaptations for the plant to be able to survive in the very cold winters, as the temperatures are way below zero, and there is lot of snow and ice. This plant will also be capable of minimizing its activity for several months, until the conditions are suitable again. The growth of it will be slow, as the vegetative season is short.

The plant from the tropical rain forest of Belize will have wide and thick leaves. It will be high because there is a lot of competition for sunlight. The plant will be able to stop the intake of water through its roots as in certain periods of the year there's just too much water. It will be highly active throughout all of the year, as it is summer summer for the whole year, and there is sufficient precipitation for most of the year, or even when there isn't there's lot of water around. iT will have a very quick growth.
