They may either release heat or gain heat. With a temperature increase, the kinetic energy increases and the state of matter will increase (example, ice to water aka solid to liquid)
If the temperature decreases, then the kinetic energy decreases and the state of matter will decrease (example, water vapor to water aka gas to liquid)
Have a nice day!
I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)

Answer:
The correct answers is: I would predict that animals with longer loops of Henle would be able to concentrate their urine more than animals with shorter loops, and thus they would more likely survive in desserts and other dry areas.
Explanation:
The<em> Loop of Henle</em> is a tubule system that connects the proximal convoluted tubule to the distal convoluted tubule in a nephron, the functional and structural unit of the kidney. Its primary job is to establish a concentration gradient in the kidney's medulla by creating a high urea concentration deep in the medulla using a countercurrent multiplier system that uses electrolyte pumps. Through this mechanism, <u><em>water is reabsorbed to concentrate the urine and impede dehydration</em></u>.
The length of the loops of Henle is of great importance for the countercurrent multiplier system - <u>the longer they are, the more concentrated the urine can get</u>. Therefore, animals with longer loops can survive better in habitats where there is not much water around.
Well one of the major physiological factors that triggers thirst is <span>a rise in plasma osmolality.
You didn't give me answer choices so I can't correctly answer.</span><span>

Answer:
d. Fire ants spread by winged members and by hitching rides so a single colony can cause infestation.
Explanation:
An invasive fire ant colony can be very disastrous to the population of organisms in a locality. They cause massive competition with the native species thereby infesting them and destroying the native population.
Fire ants spread by winged members which makes a single colony to cause severe damage to the native specie. Often times, as they become endemic, they manifest as the dominant specie in a particular location.
