5 desert animals are camel, sand cat, desert tortoises, desert lizards and the great road runner.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- Camel has several physiological and behavioral adaptations that help them survive the extreme conditions of the desert. They have flat feet to help them spread their weight in the sand.
- They have thick eyelashes and closeable nostrils to prevent the entry of sand. They store fat on their humps that supplies energy during long journeys and has a long large intestine which increases water reabsorption.
- Sand cat is similar to the domestic cat in basic appearance but has several adaptations enabling it to survive in the desert. Their paws are covered with thick and long hairs to protect the feet from the heat. They have thick fur that acts as an insulting surface during hot days and cold nights.
- Desert tortoises have excellent water storage capacity. Their bladders are larger than normal and can carry extra water. They have strong feet which helps them to dig holes in the sand and access rainwater.
- Desert lizards can drink water through skin. They do it by a process called cutaneous water acquisition and it helps them to gather water obtained from rainfall, damp sand and pools.
- Great roadrunner has peculiar adaptations. The digestive system of the bird retrieves water from the feces as it is in the excretory canal.

Explanation:
The suborganellar structure that will become visible after staining is nucleoid.
In the field of biology, nucleoid can be described as a region inside the prokaryotic cell in which the DNA is present.
The prokaryotes do not have a membrane-bound nucleus like the eukaryotes. Hence, the region where the genetic material of the prokaryotes is present is an irregular shaper structure referred to as the nucleoid.
When DNA is stained with a DNA-binding dye, the suborganellar structure that will become visible will be the nucleoid as it is the region where the DNA is present.

Answer:
Explanation:
Nucleotides are building blocks of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). A nucleic acid contains a chain of nucleotides linked together with covalent bonds to form a sugar-phosphate backbone with protruding nitrogenous bases. For example, DNA contains two such chains spiraling round each other in the famous double helix shape.

Explanation:
Hyperthermia and fever are characterized by increase in body temperature. But ,the main difference between the two is that, increase in body temperature due to illness or infection is known as fever, while hyperthermia occurs simply because the body can't release enough heat.
It should be noted that, the body release heat through some activities like breathing and sweating, to maintain normal body temperature.
In this case, the presence of fatique , racing of heart, and an upset stomach shows the presence of infection or illness, which are characteristics of a fever.
