1 answer:

3 0

A solstice is a point during the Earth's orbit around the sun while during an equinox, the sun is at its nearest point from the Equator. Another difference is that a solstice takes place on June 21 and December 22, while an equinox takes place on March 20 and September 22. One more difference is that during the summer solstice, the days are longer and in winter solstice, the nights are longer. For an equinox, the duration of day and night are both equal.

Hope it helps :)

Explanation:

These adaptive changes help in ways best seen between desert mice and those who live in darker habitats. While desert mice often developed extremely light colored coats to blend best with the environment, mice who live in forest's or valleys often have darker coats to blend with foliage and trees. These coats that help camouflage with the environment protect mice in the open from being snatched by say a eagle or bird of prey. And mice who blend equally with foliage are protected more from ground predators like other small foxes or rodents
