Some causes could be the mother smoking, drinking, doing drugs etc. Or even simply her body doesn’t fully accept the baby growing inside her so it acts out against it. Sounds strange but it happens. Also if the mother is sick with Zika or another virus, it can harm the baby’s growth.

List the steps of how a squirrel hibernates.
hoa [83]

Answer:

1. First of all, a squirrel would make sure to stash lots of food before and during the winter.

2. The squirrel would claim its own tree hollow/burrow.

3. They wrap themselves into a tight ball and go into a state of torpor (Torpor is a state where their body temperature becomes about the same temperature as their surrounding hibernaculum. This causes their heart rate to slow and causes them to use less energy)

4. Squirrels get up after 20 or so days to rewarm themselves up, and perhaps eat something to regain their energy. After that they will head back to their hibernaculum to continue hibernation.

5. When spring approaches they will fully wake up, go eat, regain their energy, and prepare themselves for the mating season.

Hope this helps :)

Select all of the following statements that represent examples of predation. Check All That Apply Deer eat the leaves of a tree.
Fantom [35]

Answer:

A snail eats a clam.

Explanation:

Interactions always occur between organisms in an ecosystem. An interaction between two organisms is called SYMBIOSIS. Symbiosis consists other types which includes PREDATION. Predation is a kind of symbiotic relationship between two organisms in which one kills and feeds on the other in order to obtain energy. The organism that kills is called the PREDATOR while the organism that is killed is called PREY.

In this example, a snail feeding on a clam best represents the example because the snail (PREDATOR) is obtaining energy by killing the clam (PREY). In other options, no organism is killed.

ad-work [718]

Answer:

Simple clothing, living in farming communities and using horse- driven vehicles best describes Amish culture.

The simple clothing concept of Amish culture shows their modesty. The women wear long and simple dresses that goes all the way down to their knees and they also cover their hair. They believe wearing simple dress is a way of keeping their hearts pure.

Amish people use buggy or horse driven vehicles and not cars because they believe that the innovation in technology has the potential to bring assimilation into the surrounding society.

They mostly live in farming communities which are located in Indiana, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Central American and even in Canada.
