What does the expression "terrestrial tetrapod" mean?

English
1 answer:
Andre45 [30]3 years ago
4 0
It means a four-legged creature living on land. Land in this context means only the groundcover, meaning, trees are excluded. Breaking down the words to its origins, we get the Latin word "terra" from terrestrial and the Greek words "tetra" and "pous" from tetrapod. "Terra" means earth, "tetra" means four while "pous" means foot. Side by side we get earth-four-foot. To make more sense, it can be interpreted as 'four foot on the earth'.

Alborosie

Answer:Dear Diary

     Recently the tree plantation drive was organized in our school. All the junior and senior students were divided into groups. Each group was supervised by a teacher. Each group chose one spot and tilled the area and sowed the seed of a tree. Every day we watered our particular area. It was great fun to work together.

    Planting trees is very advantageous. Trees help to purify the air. They take in carbon dioxide and give out oxygen. They help to make the area shady and cool. They prevent soil erosion. They also help to prevent both floods and drought.
