Answer:
e. water loss through evaporation across the respiratory surface can be minimized
Explanation:
<em>Exchange of gases, otherwise known as respiration is an important process in living organisms during which food material within the body is broken down to unlock their energies for the functioning of living organisms.</em>
During gaseous exchange, oxygen gas diffuses into respiratory tissues and dissolves on respiratory surfaces while carbon dioxide diffuses in the other direction.
Respiratory surfaces are usually thin walled with moist inner surfaces that enables the dissolution of gases. Depending on the atmospheric temperature, respiratory surfaces in terrestrial organisms are at varying risks of losing moisture to the atmosphere due to evaporation.
In aquatic organisms however, evaporation from respiratory surfaces is minimized as the immediate environment is water.
Options a to d are not entirely true about water and respiration.
The correct option is e.
Segmented digestive system, appendages are animal characteristics.
Animals are a major group of organisms, classified as the kingdom Animalia or metozoa. Animals have several characteristics that set them apart from other living things. They are all eukaryotic and usually multicellular, which separates them from bacteria and most protists. Different animals differ in their own characteristics such as appendages, segmentation among other animal characteristics.
Answer:
C

Consumers can't convert glucose, they don't take in carbon dioxide, and they can't produce Glucose, therefore it has to be C
Afferent nerve fibers carry signals from the somatic receptors to the posterior horn of the spinal cord or to the brainstem. So i beleive it is 4 but not too sure. Hope this helped a bit (:
Answer:
The hardness rating is 4.
Explanation:
Calcite sits at a hardness rating of 3 and is very easily scratched with a knife and/copper coin. This is where most Marbles, limestones, travertines, rate.
Meanwhile, Fluorite sits at hardness 4 and can be scratched by a knife.
