Organisms that live in deciduous forests have developed unique adaptations that aid in their survival. How are the bill and feet

of the platypus specially adapted for survival in their environment? a. close the nostrils in its bill when diving underwater; pointed bill for spearing fish for food; detect vibrations of moving prey using the pads on their feet b. detect the electrical discharges of prey in the sand using small pits on its bill; crush the food with grinding pads on the top and bottom of its bill; webbed feet c. have wide nails for digging burrows; webbed feet; grind food with modified teeth on the upper part of their bill d. detect the electrical discharges of prey in the sand using small pits on its bill; pointed bill for spearing fish for food; ‘finger-like’ toes on their feet that help them hold onto and eat their food

Answer: Option B  

Explanation:

Organism that survive in the deciduous forests have aid in the survival of the animals by their unique adaptations.  

The bills and the feet of the platypuses are specially adapted as they can detect the electric discharge of prey traveling through the sand using the small pits. The bills of the platypus helps in the searching the right mate.

They can also crush the food by the pads present on the top and bottom of the bill, webbed feet.

These are some adaptation that help in the survival of the platypus.

95% sure it is answer B) Detect the electrical discharges of prey in the sand using small pits on it's bill, crush the food with grinding pads on the top and bottom of it's bill (they don't have actual teeth), and webbed feet.

I did some quick research and it had all of those things. 
Hope this helps.

What do landforms include
Bess [88]

Answer:

A landform is a feature on the Earth's surface that is part of the terrain. Mountains, hills, plateaus, and plains are the four major types of landforms. Minor landforms include buttes, canyons, valleys, and basins. Tectonic plate movement under the Earth can create landforms by pushing up mountains and hills.

Which of the following statements correctly describes some aspect of ATP hydrolysis being used to drive the active transport of
saw5 [17]

Answer:

B) This is an example of energy coupling

Explanation:

Energy coupling is a process by which cells carry out thermodynamically unfavorable, endergonic (energy-requiring) reactions to other exergonic (reactions that liberate free energy) reactions.

Reactions which are endergonic do not occur spontaneously as they result in a decrease in entropy and a positive free energy change, ∆G.

Exergonic reactions occur spontaneously as they result in an increase in entropy and have a negative free energy change, ∆G.

For example, the active transport of ions against their concentration gradients in cells is a non-spontaneous endergonic process which is coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP, an exergonic process in other for the reaction to proceed. ATP hydrolysis phosphorylates an amino acid side chain in the transport protein which then drives the forward process of transport of the ion.

Considering the above,

Option A: The hydrolysis of ATP is endergonic, and the active transport is exergonic is false because ATP hydrolysis is exergonic while active transport is endergonic.

Option B: This is an example of energy coupling is true.

Option C: Both ATP hydrolysis and active transport are spontaneous because they result in an increase in entropy of the system is false because only ATP hydrolysis is spontaneous

Option D: Neither ATP hydrolysis nor active transport is spontaneous is false because ATP hydrolysis is spontaneous.

Option E: ATP is acting as a transport protein to facilitate the movement of the ion across the plasma membrane is false because ATP is not a protein, rather it serves to activate the transport protein by phosphorylating it.
