<span>Characteristics that mentioned biomes have in common are:
- They are all forests, dominated by trees and other woody vegetation.
- They inhabit animal life with great microbial diversity.
- They all have big carbon sinks.

Still, trees different in a number of ways in these three biomes:
- </span><span>Tropical rainforest: Trees are evergreen and have large green leaves. Canopy is multilayered and dense, so there is a little light in the forests.
- </span><span>Temperate deciduous forest: Trees are deciduous, leaves are lost annually. Canopy is moderately dense, so there is more light than in tropical rainforests.
- </span><span>Boreal forest: Trees are evergreen conifers with needle-like leaves. Canopy is thick and permits low light penetration.</span>

What is the function of RBC
avanturin [10]

Answer:

When a red blood cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, it contracts as water is drawn out of the cell and into the surrounding solution. If the same blood cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the blood cell grows in size. Blood cells in isotonic solutions do not shrink or swell.

The reason that blood cells change in size when placed in a solution with different salt concentration is due to the osmosis process. Osmosis causes solutions with high concentrations of salt to draw water from areas with low concentrations of salt.

There are some exceptions to this phenomenon. Blood cells can draw water and explode when placed in hypertonic solution on some special occasions. Some diseases affect the structural integrity of blood cells. Also, when human blood cells are exposed to temperatures close to freezing, they can draw water and explode.

Osmosis is an important phenomenon for living systems. The amount of salt in a given solution exhibits a tendency to diffuse through the environment, eventually resulting in equilibrium. In addition to blood cells, the kidneys function through the use of osmotic principles. The kidneys filter an animal's blood to remove excess salt and balance the amount of water

Tamiku [17]
The evolutionary effects of the genetic drift are the greatest when the population is small.
In small populations, genetic drift can significantly change the frequencies of the alleles and affect the genetic structure of the population. In big populations, the effects of the genetic drift are small and insignificant.
