Answer: The shape of the skull and the supraorbital height tell us the following about each species-
- It can tell us about the intelligence of species and what all senses they were dependent upon for their survival
- Most of the species possess similar skulls as mostly their structures are oval shaped, sloped or round shaped.
- Species have different food habits that is determined by the teeth, which vary from long and dull to short and dull.
- Variation in teeth and face shapes could also be due to different geological locations.
- In particular, the foramen magnum be located where the spine connects can be attributed to how the species gathered food through hunting and what kind of food they sought after.
- Overall, the shape and the supraorbital height of each skull informs us the advantages and disadvantages each species had in its ecosystem.
- It also tells what probable causes of death would be when the species died.
D. the floodplain shrinks
Answer: Temperature control
Explanation:
Arterio-venous anastomoses (AVAs) are direct connections between small arteries and small veins. In humans they are numerous in the glabrous skin of the hands and feet.
They are very significant in body temperature control. These temperature control are under the dual control of the central nervous system and the local thermal influence. While the arteriovenous anastomoses control the skin temperature through volume changes in the superficial venous bed, the arterioles and capillaries operate by generalized dilatation which results both in increased temperature and in redness of the skin.
Answer:
The correct answer is B. Worms move through changes in body structure caused by contraction of muscles compressing their watery fluid.
Explanation:
The hydroskeleton consists of a fluid-filled cavity, surrounded by muscles. The fluid pressure and the action of the muscles that border it, serve to change the body's shape and produce a movement such as digging or swimming. The successive contraction of various metamers, which are provided with bundles of circular and longitudinal muscle fibers, stretching and thickening parts of the body, allow it to move horizontally. Hydrostatic skeletons have a role in the locomotion of annelids, nematodes and other invertebrates. The hydroskeleton has similarities with the hydrostatic muscles.
