Answer:

Its basically because of their adaptive features.

Explanation:

The kidneys of desert animals concentrate urine, so that they excrete less water.

Kangaroo rats and lizards, live in burrows which do not get too hot or too cold and have more humid (damp) air inside.

Since water is so scarce, most desert animals get their water from the food they eat: succulent plants, seeds.

Explain how organisms changes within an environment affect their survival. Specifically discuss the effects of a gene mutation f
maw [93]
<span>Animals gradually adapt to changes within their environment over time. This gives them a better chance of surviving rather than going extinct because of the change. Say there is a gene mutation affecting color within a population of beetles in a rain-forest. All of the beetles used to be red, but now a few of them have experienced a gene mutation and are green. Because they live in a rain-forest, it is likely that the green beetles would blend in with their surroundings far better than the original red beetles, and those red beetles would be wiped out by predators because they are easier to spot. The green beetles would live on and flourish, and their population would increase. Soon there would be few or none red beetles, and many green beetles.</span>
