The animals that live in the Alpine biome have to have special adaptations to survive in it as this is a biome with very harsh conditions for big portion of the year. The temperatures are very low, the winds are strong, winter lasts for half a year or more, and there's lot of snow. All this has made the animals to develop certain traits to help them survive. Some of those adaptations are:
- thicker and longer fur for better isolation form the outside conditions
- wider paws with denser and tougher skin, helping them to move easier in the snow and avoid frostbite
- larger lungs and nostrils for easier breathing in the high altitudes
- stockier bodies so that heat can be preserved easier
- the ears and tails are small and rounded in order to avoid frost bite
- big portion of them are able to hibernate for several months
Answer:
0.058 % kcalories comes from carbohydrate.
Explanation:
1 g of carbohydrtes gives 4 calories, 1 g of protein gives 4 kcalories, 1 gm of fat gives 9 calories and 1 g of alcohol gives 7 calories of energy.
Thus in a meal that contains 110 g carbohydrates gives 110 x 4 = 440 calories, 25 g protein gives 25 x 4 = 100 calories, 20 g fat gives 20 x 9 = 180 calories and 5 g alcohol gives 5 x 7 = 35 calories.
Total calories in a meal 440+100+180+35 = 755.
Therefore % of carbogydrate will be 440x 100 divided by 755 = 58.27 %
In kcalories % would be 58.27/1000 = 0.5827 %
Answer:
Dimers, trimers, and tetramers are, for instance, oligomers composed of two, three, and four monomers, respectively. In biochemistry, an oligomer usually refers to a macromolecular complex formed by non-covalent bonding of a few macromolecules like proteins or nucleic acids.
Explanation:
Two objects that are similarly charged will repel, while two objects with opposite charges will attract. Moreover, a neutral object will attract either charges.
Adaptation is a response to the environment but long term.
For example:
<span>A wolf has a fur coat as an adaptation to the cold weather, but birds migrating south is a response to cold weather.</span>
