What behavioural adaptation does a desert fox have to help it survive in hot places

SIZIF [17.4K]3 years ago

1. Their large ears help dissipate excess body heat on hot days in the desert. 2. The fennec fox seems to be the only carnivore living in the Sahara Desert able to survive without free water. Their kidneys are adapted to restrict water loss, their extensive burrowing may cause the formation of dew, which can then be consumed, and they will receive moisture from the food that they eat. 3. Their burrowing and nocturnal lifestyle helps restrict water loss. 4. Their thick fur helps insulate them from the cold desert nights. 5. Their sandy fur helps to reflect heat, and also provides excellent camouflage. 6. Fennec foxes also have thick fur on the soles of their feet, which insulate against the hot sand of the desert. This extra fur on the soles of their feet also affords them excellent traction in the loose sand.

How does a frog get rid of urea/urine? Question 4 options: gills lungs heart kidneys
Mrrafil [7]
A frog gets rid of it's urine through the kidneys because the heart pumps blood throughout the body, the lungs are used to take in O2 molecules and gills are use to filter out the hydrogen in HO2 so they can breathe under water. However the kidneys are part of the waste disposal system (what makes us need trip to the bathroom ever now and then) therefore that is the answer.<span />

What's longer east or west
Phoenix [80]
If we talk about mathematics and the science behind geography, east and west are directions that may represent infinitely. The reason why quantity exist is to measure and create scales on how far an object is from the origin or the point of locus.
These directions can be compared to a line in math which is an endless and limitless progress of points connected without a direction however, incorporating a specific direction could still represent a endless point of west; an endless point to east. Conclusively both are infinite and long unless determined and specified by a continouous measure.

I think the conclusion would be that the fundamental and realized niches of B. balanoides are identical, but the fundamental and realized niches of C. stellatus are different.A barnarcle is a type of arthropod constituting the infraclass Cirripedia in the subphylum Crustecea, and thus related to crabs and lobsters. B. balanoides is a barnacle that attaches to rocks, especially during intertidal zones while C.stellatus is a species of acorn barnacle common on rocky shores in south West Eangland, Ireland, and Southern Europe.
