Answer:

B. has a profound effect on the distribution of organisms

Explanation:

How plants and animals grow to a large degree relies on the level of precipitation.

Some plants need more water while other plants can strive with reduced amount of available water. Different animals will strive on varying plants as this will prompt the animals to be based in the region that has the plants they feed on, of which in the process it affects distribution. Some specific kinds of animals can only strive in moist climatic region (take for example, frogs/ amphibians/ insects). The higher the precipitation the more the rainfall which in turn buttress the growth of more species and a wider aspect of biodiversity. An increased precipitation means more plants will grow resulting in more species/ huge range of bio diversity. In regions with little amount of water, the aftermath will be reduced number of plants, prompting a low amount of species which can strive in that region.

Whats are the functions of the integumentary system ?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

Absorption

Thousands of pores on the surface of the skin can absorb vitamins, acids, water and oxygen in order to provide moisture and nourishment to our skin.

Excretion

The skin is the body’s largest waste removal system. Toxins are released through the sweat glands and pores.

Secretion

The skin secretes sebum, a mixture of oils that keeps the skin soft and supple. The layer of sebum on the outermost layer of the skin is known as the acid mantle. When intact the acid mantle has a PH that ranges from 4.5-5.5. The acid mantle is acidic in nature to protect the skin from outside invasion.

Regulation

The skin regulates the body’s temperature by sweating; when water from sweat on the skin evaporates it gives off heat and cools the body.  The body’s temperature increases or by shivering or getting goosebumps when the body is cold. The contraction of muscles releases energy that warms the body.

Sensation

The skin contains millions of nerve endings that transport stimuli. These nerve endings allow humans to detect sensation such as heat, cold, pain and pressure.

How does conduction differ from convection?
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

I think the first one is correct.

The second one is half right (conduction works mostly in solids). The second part is not correct. Convection works mostly in gases.

The third one is wrong about waves. Conduction usually has direct contact of particles.

The last one is not correct. There is no visible movement of matter in conduction. The definition for convection is also incorrect.
