Consider the rabbit pairs that illustrate the pattern in the Fibonacci sequence. These rabbits produce exactly 1 pair of new rab

bits after reaching maturity at age 2 months. Imagine that the rabbits and all their offspring live forever. Also, imagine the field the rabbits live in can expand in size so that its side length is exactly equal to the number of pairs of rabbits living in the field. What is the side length of the field at the end of two years

Answer:46368

Explanation:

Start with two non-negative integers, f(0) and f(1). Compute f(2) = f(0) + f(1). Compute f(3) = f(1) + f(2).

Continue, creating f(n) = f(n-1) + f(n-2), where each new number is the sum of the prior two numbers in the sequence.

By convention, f(0) = 0. f(1) = 1 for our new first pair. f(2) = 1 as well, as conception just occurred. The new pair is born at the end of month 2, so during month 3, f(3) = 2. Only the initial pair produces offspring in month 3, so f(4) = 3. In month 4, the initial pair and the month 2 pair breed, so f(5) = 5. At the end of a year, Fibonacci has 144 pairs of rabbits.

1st month=1

2nd month = 1

3rd month= 1+1=2

4th month=2+1=3

5th month= 3+2=5

6th month =5+3 =8

7th month= 8+5 =13

8th month = 13+8 =21

9th month =21+13 =34

10th month= 34+21 =55

11th month =55+34=89

12th month=89+55=144

13th month =144+89=233

14th month= 233+144= 377

15th month=377+233= 610

16th month = 610+377=987

17th month =987+610 =1597

18th month =1597+987 =2584

19th Month =2584+1597= 4181

20th month =4281 + 1597= 6765

21st month =6765+ 4181= 10946

22nd month= 6765+10946= 17711

23rd month= 17711+ 10946= 28657

24th month = 28657+ 17711= 46368

Therefore side length of the field at the end of 2 years is 46368

Explain any two specific adaptation that allow animal to survive in Mountain habitat<br><br>​
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Among others, two adaptations might be

  1. Avoiding corporal heat loss
  2. Increasing oxygen absorption  

Explanation:

Up in the mountains, there is low oxygen, food is scarce, and adverse meteorological conditions. Animals and plants need to develop different strategies to survive. These adaptations involve not only physical and physiological changes but also behavioral changes. To mention a few adaptations, we can name:

  • Avoiding heat loss. Temperature tends to be very low at highs, so, to <u>avoid heat loss,</u> animals develop shorter legs, tails, and ears. By doing this they reduce the area or surface of heat loss and also avoid getting frozen. In mammals, the coat is also very important. A thick coat helps them maintain a constant body temperature and keep warm. Some amphibians might also develop a thicker skin as they can not regulate their temperature, and it also helps them not to dehydrate.
  • Camouflage: Coat is also helpful in camouflaging. Mammals´ hair color depends on their environment. Some animals, such as hares, can also change their fur color depending on the season. During snow seasons they turn white, and during the warmer season, they turn yellow or brown.
  • Size and metabolism: Small mammals lose heat very fast, so they need to keep active and feeding most of the time. They have an elevated metabolism to keep warm. On the contrary, big animals, such as bears, need to hibernate to reduce their metabolism and get to survive, otherwise, they would need many reserves to cover their energetic requirements.
  • Oxygen absorption: Some animals have adapted to the lack of oxygen by increasing their heart and lungs capacity as well as their capability to absorbing more oxygen from the blood.
