☆ The function of the muscular system to respond to information from the brain, and contract accordingly.

<h3>➤ Reason</h3>

✧ The nervous system is responsible for sending signals to the body to control it. Your nervous system can send electrical pulses to your muscles, which they respond accordingly, moving in what ever way your nervous system told it to. Your nervous system is controlled by your brain, and this is why you can control these movements. Say for example, when you move, your fingers, you are actually just sending electrical signals to your hands which cause your muscles to contract, making your finger move in a certain direction. The muscles are connected to your bones, which are connected to joints, allowing the bones to move in different directs when your muscles contract.

<h2>✧ Your brain is powerful.</h2><h2 /><h2>╚═⋄═◇═◈═❖═✧═☆═✧═❖═◈═◇═⋄═╝</h2><h2 /><h2 /><h2 /><h2 /><h2 />

list 5 animals that live in the desert. Write a paragraph telling me how they can survive in this particular biome. What feature

NARA [144]

5 desert animals are camel, sand cat, desert tortoises, desert lizards and the great road runner.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Camel has several physiological and behavioral adaptations that help them survive the extreme conditions of the desert. They have flat feet to help them spread their weight in the sand.
They have thick eyelashes and closeable nostrils to prevent the entry of sand. They store fat on their humps that supplies energy during long journeys and has a long large intestine which increases water reabsorption.

Sand cat is similar to the domestic cat in basic appearance but has several adaptations enabling it to survive in the desert. Their paws are covered with thick and long hairs to protect the feet from the heat. They have thick fur that acts as an insulting surface during hot days and cold nights.

Desert tortoises have excellent water storage capacity. Their bladders are larger than normal and can carry extra water. They have strong feet which helps them to dig holes in the sand and access rainwater.

Desert lizards can drink water through skin. They do it by a process called cutaneous water acquisition and it helps them to gather water obtained from rainfall, damp sand and pools.

Great roadrunner has peculiar adaptations. The digestive system of the bird retrieves water from the feces as it is in the excretory canal.

In 2006, scientists found a fossil that seemed to have fish-like scales and four legs. It also had a bone structure in its neck

lianna [129]

Answer:

Option-C

Explanation:

Scientists found a fossil of a fish with four limbs or legs. The fossil was estimated to be around 375 million years old.

The fossil showed the fins and scales of a fish but they also possess the bones of proto-wrist, shoulders and the elbow.

The presence of these bones can be a clue that the fish evolved the limbs to walk on the land and will later evolve into animals belonging to amphibians, reptiles and mammals. Therefore, the Tiktaalik is considered the missing link of how life evolved from water to land.

Thus, Option-C is correct.

In the amoeba, water input and output are controlled by the _____.

Anastaziya [24]

Vacuole. Amoeba is a unicellular organism formerly grouped under Kingdom Protista. Amoeba in freshwater need contractile vacuole to control input and output of water. (osmosis). Without this structure, ameboid cells will be filled with water and eventually burst.
