What adaptation does a wood frog have that enable it to survive in deciduous forest ?

Physics
2 answers:
KATRIN_1 [288]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The temperature in deciduous forest can range from -30° C to 30°C with 10°C being an average temperature.

Wood frog has adapted to survive in freezing temperatures during winters. It does so by practicing thawing and freezing in a cyclic or systematic manner.

It helps the frog to accumulate glucose and urea in the body. These substances then act as cryoprotectant that is, they prevent the freezing of the cells or tissues (by lowering the freezing point) of the organism and thus prevent the loss of water from the cells.

On arrival of spring, the warm temperature thaws the frog after which the leftover glucose is converted back to glycogen and urea is excreted out of the body.

Wood frogs have this adaptation where they accumulate urea in their bodies and convert their liver glycogen to glucose to act as cryoprotectants. This prevents the formation of ice crystals in their bodies that could cause damage cells during freezing in winter.

How did astronomers precisely determine the length of an Astronomical Unit in the 1960s?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Use of telemetry and radar astronomy

Explanation:

An astronomical Unit (AU) is a unit of measuring distances in outer space, which is based on the approximate distance between the earth and the Sun.

After several years of trying to approximate the distance between the Sun and the Earth using several methods based on geometry and some other calculations, advancements in technology made available the presence of special motoring equipment, which can be placed in outer space to remotely monitor and measure the position of the sun.

The use of direct radar measurements to the sun (radar astronomy) have also made the determination of the AU more accurate.

A standard radar pulse of known speed is sent to the Sun, and the time with which it takes to return is measured,  once this is recorded, the distance between the Earth and the Sun can be calculated using

distance = speed X time.

However, most of these means have to be corrected for parallax errors

You drop your frozen rock from a green bridge. The frozen rock starts from rest (initial velocity = 0ms). The rock takes 4.3s to
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

The velocity of the frozen rock at t = 1.5\,s is -14.711 meters per second.

Explanation:

The frozen rock experiments a free fall, which is a type of uniform accelerated motion due to gravity and air viscosity and earth's rotation effect are neglected. In this case, we need to find the final velocity (v), measured in meters per second, of the frozen rock at given instant and whose kinematic formula is:

v = v_{o} + g\cdot t (Eq. 1)

Where:

v_{o} - Initial velocity, measured in meters per second.

g - Gravity acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

t - Time, measured in seconds.

If we get that v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, g = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and 1.5\,s, then final velocity is:

v = 0\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (1.5\,s)

v = -14.711\,\frac{m}{s}

The velocity of the frozen rock at t = 1.5\,s is -14.711 meters per second.

What is the difference between: first moment of area and second moment of area?
zhannawk [14.2K]
To determine the centroid of the object first moment of area is used.

To predict the resistance of a shape to bending and deflection which are directly proportional, second moment of area is used.

How many neutrons does element x have if it's atomic number is 27 and it's mass number is 74
Makovka662 [10]

Atomic number=Proton count

Atomic mass=Proton count+ neutron count

Neuton Count=Atomic mass-Proton count

Proton count=Atomic number=27

Mass number=74

Neuton count= 74-27=47
