Cacti grow in the desert, which is a very hot climate. Not the best for both gaining and maintaining water supplies, due to the fact that water becomes vapour very quickly in conditions such as a desert (unless we're talking about polar deserts).

Keeping their stomata closed during the day stops water vapour from escaping their cells. While this does inhibit growth and stop new water molecules from entering, it allows the cactus to maintain a healthy amount of water within itself.

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is- A) two, B) yes, the number is the same as monosaccharides.

Explanation:

There are three atoms are present in a molecule of water which includes two atoms of the hydrogen and one atom of the oxygen. The hydrogen atom is two times larger in the number of the oxygen atom in a single molecule of the water.

In monosaccharides, the ratio of the atoms of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen is 1:2:1 which means one hydrogen atom would be twice in the number of the carbon and oxygen atoms in a single molecule of monosaccharide molecule.

Thus, the correct answer is - A) two, B) yes, the number is the same as monosaccharides.

Morgarella [4.7K]

Assuming that this question makes reference to the survivability of the two moth variations, we can confirm that the brown-colored moth will be better adapted to survive in the winter months.

<h3>Why are the brown moths more likely to survive?</h3>

This has to do with their ability to better hide from predators. As described in the question, their primary predator are birds that hunt them while resting on the tree bark. This means that the white-colored moths will stand out against the dark tree bark and be easier prey for the birds. This will eventually lead to all the moths in the area being brown-colored through the process of natural selection.  

Therefore, we can confirm that the brown-colored moth will be better adapted to survive in the winter months due to their ability to hide from predators.
