Option D – amphibians may use their skin for gas exchange is the characteristic feature of amphibians that differs from reptiles.
Explanation:
The amphibian skin is moist, thin and marbled and supplied by blood vessels running on its surface. The moisture present in the skin dissolves the oxygen present in its surrounding which is absorbed by the blood vessels. Special glands help the amphibians to keep the skin moist.
The very thick and tough scales present on the reptiles prevent them to absorb oxygen through their skin. Hence, they breathe and respire through their lungs.
Amphibians have three-chambered heart. They do not develop amniotic eggs. Adult amphibians although spend much time on land, they breed only in water due to the absence of amniotic sac

Answer:
"A protein's specific shape determines its function. If the three-dimensional structure of the protein is altered because of a change in the structure of the amino acids, the protein becomes denatured and does not perform its function as expected."

Answer:
Internal factors include particle-size distribution, organic matter content, mineralogy and water content of the soil. Externally applied forces are generally mechanically applied forces, the primary source of these being vehicular traffic
Explanation:
Answer:
More energy are packed into less space by starch molecules far more than glucose or sucrose yet they are able to release this energy easily, hence maximizing both storage and mobilization.
Explanation:
When plants have a period of dormancy to survive, they store their food as starch. They store enough of this energy so as to be able to restart with and to be able to maintain metabolism for the entire period of dormancy.
In addition, we know that starch is not water soluble, hence, lacks the ability to pull water into storage cells or cause irregularity in water balance. More energy are packed into less space by starch molecules far more than glucose or sucrose yet they are able to release this energy easily, hence maximizing both storage and mobilization.
Glucose is not directly transported by plants to storage. Rather, in a plant stem, the form of carbohydrate being transported is sucrose and this is because it is a non-reducing and does not react with oxygen during transport in the stem to specialized storage plastids.
I mean each Animal has a purpose in order to keep the food chain in line, for example sharks if they went extinct there would be more seals and more fish and less of this and that. Each animal plays a certain part on earth in order to keep everything normal.
