Answer:
<em>This is an example of natural selection (adaptation).</em>
Explanation:
Natural selection tends to favor those organisms which are better adapted to live in an environment.
As tortoises having flat shell and long neck were better adapted to live in barren area, hence through natural selection those organisms were favored in such an ecosystem.
As tortoises that lived on the vegetative lands were more adapted to live in such an ecosystem, hence through natural ecosystem these organisms were favored and increased in numbers.
Answer:
c. because arteries carry high pressure blood from the heart
Explanation:
Arteries carry the oxygenated blood that is pumped directly from the left ventricle of the heart. Since they receive blood from the heart, the blood pressure is higher in arteries than veins. To withstand the higher pressure of blood pumped by heart, arteries have thicker walls than the walls of veins.
Answer:
The pulmonary artery carries oxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs. The blood here passes through capillaries adjacent to alveolar and becomes oxygenated as part of the process of respiration. In contrast to the pulmonary arteries, the bronchial arteries supply nutrition to the lungs themselves.
