Compare and contrast plant-like and animal-like protists.

Biology
1 answer:
Alik [6]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The main way animal-like protists differ from plant-like protists is in the way they get energy. Animal-like protists are heterotrophs. They have to eat other protists or bacteria in order to get energy, much as animals have to eat plants or other animals to get their energy. Plant-like protists, on the other hand, are autotrophs. They can make their own energy from the sun or other sources just as plants can.

Why are ribonucleoside triphosphates the monomers required for rna synthesis rather than ribonucleoside monophosphates?
torisob [31]

Answer:

The phosphates provide energy for the bond between each nucleotide.

Explanation:

When each nucleotide is being bound, the two extra phosphates provide the energy needed for it to form the bind between each nucleotide that's being added to the RNA. Without this energy, the RNA wouldn't be able to form due to the lack of enough energy.

list 5 animals that live in the desert. Write a paragraph telling me how they can survive in this particular biome. What feature
NARA [144]

5 desert animals are camel, sand cat, desert tortoises, desert lizards and the great road runner.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Camel has several physiological and behavioral adaptations that help them survive the extreme conditions of the desert. They have flat feet to help them spread their weight in the sand.
  • They have thick eyelashes and closeable nostrils to prevent the entry of sand. They store fat on their humps that supplies energy during long journeys and has a long large intestine which increases water reabsorption.
  • Sand cat is similar to the domestic cat in basic appearance but has several adaptations enabling it to survive in the desert. Their paws are covered with thick and long hairs to protect the feet from the heat. They have thick fur that acts as an insulting surface during hot days and cold nights.  
  • Desert tortoises have excellent water storage capacity. Their bladders are larger than normal and can carry extra water. They have strong feet which helps them to dig holes in the sand and access rainwater.
  • Desert lizards can drink water through skin. They do it by a process called cutaneous water acquisition and it helps them to gather water obtained from rainfall, damp sand and pools.
  • Great roadrunner has peculiar adaptations. The digestive system of the bird retrieves water from the feces as it is in the excretory canal.
