Answer:
D) The porcupine is showing a physical characteristic adaptation and the opossum is showing a behavioral adaptation.
Explanation:
Adaptation, which refers to the ability of an organism to adjust to changes in their external environment in order to survive, is of different types namely: physical/structural, behavioral etc.
- A physical or structural adaptation is a possessed physical characteristics/traits of an organism that enables it adapt.

Answer:
#2 is B #3 is
Explanation:
Plant cells have cell walls around them, and animal cells don't have cell walls. The cell walls give plant cells their boxy shapes. That's nice for plants, because it gives them the ability to grow up and out, where they can get lots of sunlight for making their food.
The nucleus maintains the integrity of genes and controls the activities of the cell by regulating gene expression- the nucleus is, therefore, the control center of the cell.
B. To orient themselves and to find food
Since they cannot see very well or even at all in some cases, these animals use echolocation instead to orient themselves, to find where they are, and to find food.
