Answer:

Explanation:

The two characteristics that appear from the options are,<u> found lining many areas that contact the external environment and plays a role in protection</u>.

What behavioral adaptations help snakes survive in hot dry places

Marizza181 [45]

Snakes have several behavioural adaptations that help them to survive in hot and dry places. One behaviour that a snake does is to make their head appear larger by spreading it apart. They will also roll over on their back to appear to have a seizure/convulsion to scare away predators. To survive in hot/dry places such as the desert, a snake will use thermoregulation. They do this by laying in the sun at optimal times such as late afternoon, midday, and sometimes early morning. This helps them to avoid the extreme temps. Many snakes can also make themselves blend into the environment around them and look like the surrounding landscape. Snakes have also evolved so that they won't need much hydration in the desert. They will get the water they need from the prey they eat.

He is studying oxygen, which can also be found in proteins.

He is studying oxygen, which is the most abundant element in the atmosphere.

He is studying nitrogen, which can also be found in proteins.

He is studying nitrogen, which is the most abundant element in the atmosphere.

Answer:

The correct answer is - He is studying oxygen, which can also be found in proteins.

Explanation:

Human body is comprises of various type of molecules and elements such as fats, protein, carbohydrates and many other elements. Carbohydrates and fatty acids are are made up of 3 major elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

Oxygen is an essential element with 65% of all elements found in human body it shows great affinity with proteins. Oxygen binds with hemoglobin then transferred to the through out the body. The oxygen is also one of the elements found in proteins with other elements like nitrogen, hydrogen and carbon.

Thus, the correct answer is - He is studying oxygen, which can also be found in proteins.
