Biology

neonofarm [45]2 years ago
4 0

The animals that live in the Alpine biome have to have special adaptations to survive in it as this is a biome with very harsh conditions for big portion of the year. The temperatures are very low, the winds are strong, winter lasts for half a year or more, and there's lot of snow. All this has made the animals to develop certain traits to help them survive. Some of those adaptations are:

- thicker and longer fur for better isolation form the outside conditions

- wider paws with denser and tougher skin, helping them to move easier in the snow and avoid frostbite

- larger lungs and nostrils for easier breathing in the high altitudes

- stockier bodies so that heat can be preserved easier

- the ears and tails are small and rounded in order to avoid frost bite

- big portion of them are able to hibernate for several months

Spanish influenza is thought to be caused by
s2008m [1.1K]

The "Spanish" influenza pandemic of 1918–1919, which caused ≈50 million deaths worldwide, remains an ominous warning to public health. Many questions about its origins, its unusual epidemiologic features, and the basis of its pathogenicity remain unanswered. The public health implications of the pandemic therefore remain in doubt even as we now grapple with the feared emergence of a pandemic caused by H5N1 or other virus. However, new information about the 1918 virus is emerging, for example, sequencing of the entire genome from archival autopsy tissues. But, the viral genome alone is unlikely to provide answers to some critical questions. Understanding the 1918 pandemic and its implications for future pandemics requires careful experimentation and in-depth historical analysis.

Where does energy first come into an ecosystem?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:B. Sunlight provides energy to producers

Explanation: photoautotrophs (plants) produce energy from sunlight by photosynthesis. This is the only energy production based on an external source of energy. Plants, whether alive or dead, are consumed by heterotrophs - bacteria, fungi and animals. The nutrients and energy from dead heterotrophs (and some live ones) are recycled by both autotrophs and heterotrophs.
