Biology
1 answer:
Stels [109]3 years ago
7 0
Capillaries are made up of very thin and flat tissues that are spread across the body. Substances are able to diffuse through the capillaries because of the presence of blood. Particularly, the red blood cells that make-up blood within the body. These cells have the ability to carry oxygen, carbon dioxide, glucose, and water to pass through the capillaries.

What behavioral adaptations help snakes survive in hot dry places
Marizza181 [45]
Snakes have several behavioural adaptations that help them to survive in hot and dry places. One behaviour that a snake does is to make their head appear larger by spreading it apart. They will also roll over on their back to appear to have a seizure/convulsion to scare away predators. To survive in hot/dry places such as the desert, a snake will use thermoregulation. They do this by laying in the sun at optimal times such as late afternoon, midday, and sometimes early morning. This helps them to avoid the extreme temps. Many snakes can also make themselves blend into the environment around them and look like the surrounding landscape. Snakes have also evolved so that they won't need much hydration in the desert. They will get the water they need from the prey they eat.
