High-altitude environments present a number of physiological challenges for endothermic animals, as they are characterized by a lower partial pressure of oxygen (<span>) and lower ambient temperatures compared to low-altitude environments at similar latitudes. The reduced </span><span> at high altitude results in reduced oxygen loading in the lungs such that the blood may not carry a sufficient supply of oxygen to the cells of respiring tissues (</span>Bencowitz et al. 1982<span>; </span>Bouverot 1985<span>; </span>Turek et al. 1973<span>). This reduced level of tissue oxygenation can impose severe constraints on aerobic metabolism and may therefore influence an animal's food requirements, water requirements, the capacity for sustained locomotor activity, and the capacity for internal heat production.

Answer: Selectively permeable means a membrane allows the passage of some molecules or ions and inhibits the passage of others. The capacity to filter molecular transport in this manner is called selective permeability.
Explanation:
Shortened: This means the membrane only allows some things to pass through while others can't.

Answer:
True
According to UCMP Berkley, the only naturally occurring marsupial in the North America is the opossum (of different varieties).
Australia has a variety of marsupials, including the Tasmanian Devil, wombat, koala, and Red Kangaroo.
In order to actually start up the Scientific method you must "Observe" whatever it is you want to question.
It's habitat!
