Explain how ostriches evolved to survive in their environment.

Biology
1 answer:
AnnyKZ [126]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Some scientists believe that there were huge fires and the skies were dark and full of pollution due to a meteor exploding and killing off the dinosaurs, and if it's true that this occurred, the Ostrich evolved to be a land animal due to it being too dangerous in the air for them. The long neck may have developed to help them get food that was higher up which is the same speculation for the Giraffe. To stay on land they had to be stronger, bigger, and faster than they were in flight.

Bioflix activity: cellular respiration and photosynthesis -- energy flow can you identify how energy flows through an ecosystem?
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Sun

Sun is the main source of energy on earth. About 40% light reach to the atmosphere some of which is filtered by ozone layers, water vapours and other gases. only 1% light is used in photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis

                         Producers contain chloroplast filled with chlorophyll molecules. when sunlight falls on leaves process of photosynthesis occurs which convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose.

Respiration

                 Respiration occurs both in producers and consumers. in this process chemical energy (glucose) is converted into ATP, NADH and FADH2.

Decomposition

                  there are some organisms known as decompose s. they decompose dead bodies of plants and animals and convert complex molecules into simple nutrients with help of energy. in this way sun light energy is transferring in ecosystem in different forms.

hodyreva [135]

<u>Answer</u>:

There are a number of lipids that are found in foods and contribute to various functions in the body. Triglycerides are the most common lipid found in food and in the body; they consist of a <u><em>Glycerol</em></u><u> </u>backbone attached to three fatty acids.

Fatty acids are classified based on the degree to which the carbon chain is saturated with <u><em>Hydrogen</em></u>

A fatty acid is <u><em>saturated </em></u>if it contains no carbon-carbon double bonds,   <em><u>polyunsaturated </u></em>if it contains  two or more carbon-carbon double bonds, and<em><u> monounsaturated </u></em>if it has only one carbon-carbon double bond.

The unsaturated fatty acids can exist in one of two structural forms: the <em><u>trans </u></em>form occurs when hydrogens on both carbons forming the double bond lie on opposite sides of that bond.

When hydrogens on an unsaturated fatty acid lie on the same side of the carbon-carbon double bond, a <u><em>cis </em></u>formation exists.
