Explain any two specific adaptation that allow animal to survive in Mountain habitat<br><br>​
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Among others, two adaptations might be

  1. Avoiding corporal heat loss
  2. Increasing oxygen absorption  

Explanation:

Up in the mountains, there is low oxygen, food is scarce, and adverse meteorological conditions. Animals and plants need to develop different strategies to survive. These adaptations involve not only physical and physiological changes but also behavioral changes. To mention a few adaptations, we can name:

  • Avoiding heat loss. Temperature tends to be very low at highs, so, to <u>avoid heat loss,</u> animals develop shorter legs, tails, and ears. By doing this they reduce the area or surface of heat loss and also avoid getting frozen. In mammals, the coat is also very important. A thick coat helps them maintain a constant body temperature and keep warm. Some amphibians might also develop a thicker skin as they can not regulate their temperature, and it also helps them not to dehydrate.
  • Camouflage: Coat is also helpful in camouflaging. Mammals´ hair color depends on their environment. Some animals, such as hares, can also change their fur color depending on the season. During snow seasons they turn white, and during the warmer season, they turn yellow or brown.
  • Size and metabolism: Small mammals lose heat very fast, so they need to keep active and feeding most of the time. They have an elevated metabolism to keep warm. On the contrary, big animals, such as bears, need to hibernate to reduce their metabolism and get to survive, otherwise, they would need many reserves to cover their energetic requirements.
  • Oxygen absorption: Some animals have adapted to the lack of oxygen by increasing their heart and lungs capacity as well as their capability to absorbing more oxygen from the blood.

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

It must belong to the Kingdom Fungi.

Explanation:

Fungi are the organisms that have long thread-like structures called hypha in their body. Many hyphae together form a mass called mycelium. Fungi are eukaryotes and have a well-defined nucleus in their cells. They also have cell walls that are made up of chitin. Fungi are mostly multicellular. However, yeast is the fungi that have a single cell in their body. Fungi are heterotrophs and derive their nutrition by parasitic or saprophytic mode of nutrition. Therefore, the given description tells that the microbe should be a fungus.
