Answer:

The correct answer is - reduced thoracic (lung) compliance.

Explanation:

Reduced lung compliance is characterized by the stiffness in the lung and required extra work to internalize normal volume of the air in the thoracic cavity.

It is caused as the lungs, in this case, are become fibrotic, become stiffer and distensibility. Due to the enzyme activity elastic tissue becomes damaged in case of emphysema in highly compliant lungs.

Thus, the correct answer is - reduced thoracic compliance.

A feeding adaptation an iguana has is it’s short nose. This feature is important for feeding because it helps it eat algae off rocks.

Marine and Land iguanas have similar traits even though they aren’t the same kind of iguana because, most of their predators are the same. Therefore a bird or other prey would not be able to tell the difference so that’s why land and marine would both need spines on their back.

I think the camouflage is the most beneficial in land iguanas because their predators can’t spot them that easily, and it’s a quick way to blend in. I also think that the iguanas nose on marine iguanas is the most important because when they eat algae it’s easy to eat and they don’t have to change their position when feeding.

In place of thymine, what does RNA use as a base <br><br> Please help
11111nata11111 [884]
The first three are the same as those found in DNA, but in RNA thymine is replaced by uracil as the base complementary to adenine. This base is also a pyrimidine and is very similar to thymine. Uracil is energetically less expensive to produce than thymine, which may account for its use in RNA.
