Answer:

Open circulatory systems are advantageous to some animals because they use less metabolic energy.

Explanation:

Open circulatory systems are also known as lagoon circulatory systems. In this systems the blood is not necessarily always inside the blood vessels; It leaves the heart and will directly irrigate the organs and then return by other means or mechanisms.

So that it can be understood more easily, it is necessary to think about this system acting in organisms much smaller and less complex than mammals or any other vertebrate of greater size. As this animals doesn't have a great size, they need to use less metabolic energy than more developed organisms, so this system allows them to save metabolic energy to be used in other living functions.

An organism adapts to both biotic and abiotic factors in its environment. Decide if each adaptation is in response to a biotic o
luda_lava [24]

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).

Describe how selective breeding of wolves has lead to the breeds of dogs we see today?
SpyIntel [72]

Well, what happened was that you had populations of dog-wolves that became isolated from the greater wolf population and in doing so, they began to breed more closely—to inbreed as it were. And when you inbreed, you get genetic peculiarities that arise, and those peculiarities then begin to become part of the population…. In other words, a mutation will appear in a small population.
