1) The amount of rain an area receives
2) Vegetation - Deserts have a lot of runoff because there is very few plants to protect the soil. 
3) The type of soil (some types of soil absorb more water than others.
4) The shape of the land.
5) How people use the land. For example, a paved parking lot absorbs no water, so all the rain that falls on it becomes runoff.

Answer:

Desert tortoises are native to the American Southwest and these reptiles are completely herbivorous. Their diet includes mostly desert grasses, leafy plants and flowers. Some people keep these tortoises as pets and many make the mistake of indiscriminately feeding them store-bought produce. While store-bought produce can be part of a desert tortoise's diet, it should be limited to dark leafy greens that are high in fiber -- such as kale, collard greens, spinach and parsley.

Adapt extinct mutation

lisabon 2012 [21]

That organism will survive in the future which adapt themselves according to the environment.

<h3>What is fitness?</h3>

Fittest is the term describes living things that are best suited to their environment.

Species that survive are the ones that adapt, make or meet changes.

Florida has a rich fossil record spanning from the Eocene to recent times. Florida fossils are often very well preserved.

Two examples of land animal fossils found in Florida are the giant sloth and the saber-tooth tiger.

Some animals unable to adapt to the changing environment became extinct .

Living things mutate over time to meet their changing environment.

This biologist, Darwin, studied evolution in the 1800s.

The glyptodont was a giant, armadillo-like animal with a spiked tail that once lived in Florida.

The Origin of Species is a book written in 1859 about natural selection.

Nature selects the fittest for survival because they have useful traits.

Changes may occur in animals due to changes in the sequence of base pairs in their DNA, and this is known as a mutation.

Oldfield mice show variation in the color of their fur.

The survival of the light-colored old field mice on Florida's Gulf Coast is an example of the process called adaptation.

Evolution is a controversial theory that has survived much criticism.

What is the role of environmental factors, such as altitude and heat, in very long-distance run or other performances lasting on

Vitek1552 [10]

The role of environmental factors in very long-distance run or other performances is that the longer the performance, the greater the chance that environmental factors play a role in the result and is a limiting factor.

<h3>What is Energy?</h3>

This is referred to as the ability or the capacity to do work and examples include the following: potential, chemical energy etc.

The longer the performance, the greater the chance that environmental factors play a role in the outcome and they become limiting in terms of energy production because they are able to restrict or influence certain activities needed for its generation.
