Why would it be pointless for reptiles to sit on their eggs to incubate them as birds do? (2 points) Reptiles have teeth with wh

ich to defend their eggs from predators, so they do not need to hide the eggs. Reptiles have no feathers and cannot cushion the eggs from bumping into each other without them. Reptiles are ectotherms and cannot raise their body temperature above that of the environment. Reptile eggs are not amniotic and have no shell, so sitting on them would crush them.

The correct answer is: 'Reptiles are ectotherms and cannot raise their body temperature above that of the environment'. Birds sit on their eggs to incubate the eggs as the body temperature of the adult bird warms up the eggs. Birds are <span>endothermic homeotherms, and maintain a constant body temperature. In contrast </span>reptiles <span>are ectothermic poikilotherms, and their body temperature depends on the temperature of the outside environment.</span>

What is the difference between muscle cells and nerve cells
4vir4ik [10]

I mean, there's plenty of differences between muscle and nerve cells. For one, they serve different functions. Nerve cells react and send stimuli rapidly through action potentials, functioning in the nervous system and allowing the brain to communicate with the rest of the body, while muscle cells allow muscles to move. Another difference is the structure of the cells, with nerve cells having dendrites, axons, and neurotransmitters to assist in the firing of action potentials. You're going to have to be a little more specific, I can't really help you any more with such a broad question.
