The biotic factors can be defined as those living elements of an ecosystem that affects the other members of the ecosystem and also shapes it. The examples include animals and plants. The abiotic factors can be defined as those elements which are non-living and have effect on the other components of the ecosystem. The examples include water, air, soil etc.

A rabbit having long ears in order to disperse heat is adapting to the abiotic factor, i.e. the heat.

The spines of cactus are an adaptation to another abiotic factor, water.

The bright red color of the petunia is to attract the hummingbirds for pollination. They are adapting to the biotic factor (hummingbird).

The blending ability of stick-bugs to hide in the trees is an adaptation to the biotic factor (predators).

The diving ability of the moth is an adaptation to the biotic factor bat, in order to escape predation.

The adaptation of the lizard to sun itself on the rock in order to stay warm is in response to an abiotic factor (heat).

Why are the cartilage rings in the trachea important? What do you think would happen if they were not there?
timama [110]

Answer:

The trachea, commonly known as the windpipe, is a most important organ as it allows the passage of air into the lungs. Because the trachea has a soft tissue tubular formation, it needs a base of stronger, yet flexible stuff that will give it support, protect it, and still allow the passage of air into the lungs.

This is precisely the task of the tracheal rings, or cartilage rings in the trachea. These rings are made out of cartilaginous tissue, which is much stronger than the soft tissue of the tubule, but are still flexible enough to not close down the tube when air is flowing in. Thus, the tracheal rings have two tasks: one, provide support and protection for the much softer and more vunerable tube of soft tissue through which the air passes, and two, provide flexibility so that air can flow easily.

If these tracheal rings did not exist, if they are crushed, or removed, a person´s trachea would simply collapse and the person would die as air would not be able to flow through to the lungs.
