What is adaptation in animals and plants

Biology
2 answers:
Lerok [7]3 years ago
4 0
Adaptation is when a plant or animal make modifications to their body to survive in an altered environment. For example, the snow foxes' fur changes depending on the seasons. Another example would be blueberries. They develop thorns in order to protect the berries the plant grows.
Pretty much all plants adapt. If you pay attention, when you put a plant next to the window, and when there's no sunlight shining on it, you should notice that it will start to lean toward the sun.
Hope I helped!

Adaptation is a modified part of the animal that it was born with to survive in certain a certain way that it was suppose to survive. For example, Ducks have webbed feet, so they can swim. That is an example of an adaptive animal.

Match each image with the life function the organism is performing. 1.reproduction
Lorico [155]

Answer:

1. Obtaining energy

2. responding to a stimulus

3. reproduction

4. excretion

Explanation:

1. All living organisms require energy for their life processes. This energy is derived from food. The food we eat contains biomolecules that store energy. The energy stored by these food molecules is released by a process called RESPIRATION. Image 1 shows a cat trying to obtain energy by feeding. The food will eventually be broken down to release energy.

2. Stimulus is any thing (whether internal or external) that causes a change in an organism. In image 2, a man is responding to a sudden change in his back, which is pain.

3. Reproduction is a characteristics of living organisms that involves the production of young ones. Image 3 depicts two cells undergoing fertilization (fusion of nuclei) to produce a new cell. In turn, the cell divides again to form two gametes. The cycle continues like that.

4. Excretion is the removal of waste products from a cell. According to Image 4, the cell allows a food particle in and releases the waste contents out of the cell.

If an individual is homozygous for a trait, what percentage of his/her gametes will carry that allele?
Kazeer [188]
100% will have that allele. Homozygous means the alleles are the same for every gamete, for example looking at Mendel's pea plants, if the allele for the trait of growing tall is T and the allele for growing short is t, a homozygous tall pea plant would have the genotype TT, meaning all of its alleles are tall
