Answer: DESERT
Explanation:
Adaptation can be defined as the modification in the form, structure, function and behaviour of organisms in a habitat which enables them to live successfully and reproduce.
Desert is one of the types of the world biomes that is characterized with little or no rain and to extreme temperatures. Organisms, which includes plants and animals, must show some level of adaptation to able to survive the harsh environment.
The type of PLANTS which can survive in desert environment are called the XEROPHYTES. They show the following adaptations:
--> The roots are well developed: they grow down to great depths and branch extensively in order to absorb water
--> they possess swollen stems which contains water storage cells.
--> they have reduced leaves, for example in cacti in the form of spines, which helps to reduce water loss through transpiration.
The type of animal that survive in desert environment spend the hot dry seasons in a sleep-like torpid state called aestivation. This is so in order to avoid the heat. Their body size is usually small and less bulky: greater surface area in relation to body volume, thus enhancing heat loss from the body.
Organisms that live in the _________ must be adapted to little or no rain and to extreme temperatures.
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. A modification of the leaves into the spine in a cactus plant can be seen The spines are modified leaves. It helps defend the plant and also reduce the surface area which helps limit loss of water.
Answer: Hydrogen-3 or tritium as it is commonly called, has a half life of 12.32 years. If you start with 20 grams of it, how much will remain after 25 years? Ending Amount = Beginning Amount / 2 (time / half-life) Ending Amount = 20 / 2 (25 / 12.32) Ending Amount = 20 / 2 (2.0292) Ending Amount = 20 / 4.0818. Ending Amount = 4.8997 grams
Explanation:
Answer:
Protein found in antibodies provides the immunity to our body to fight against any foreign antigen.
Explanation:
- Protein is the building block of our body. It forms the body tissue and even acts as a fuel source.
- But protein found in antibodies are slightly different in their function. In antibodies, protein develops the immunity power that shields our body from the external antigens that may cause dysfunction in our body.
- These antibodies drags out any antigens attacking our body systems.
