It's an important part of the bird's ability to maintain its body temperature. 
Air is a poor conductor of heat, so the air trapped among the feathers
prevents the loss of heat in cold atmosphere, and prevents overheating
in hot atmosphere.  Much like our wearing several layers of clothing.

Explain how ecosystem can change even if people are not involved​
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The animals could change it. For example, a bunny could dig a hole in the ground, making a home for other animals inside of it, too, changing the animals' living environment.

Or natural disasters could change their environment, too. For example, if a landslide occurred and covered a pond, frogs and snakes could lose their living areas and food, which would make them have to move to a different area, changing another ecosystem.

Explain how a crayfish is designed to be a bottom feeder.
vodka [1.7K]

Bottom feeders are aquatic animals that feed on the bottom of a body of a water. Crayfish is the bottom feeder. It is not active swimmer, it feed on stationary or slow pray, so it does not have such a streamlined body necessary to reduce drag during swimming. Its mouth is located on the underside of their heads and that way mouth is closer to the bottom where their food is.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

The cardiovascular system helps maintain homeostasis by continually supplying the central nervous system--the brain and spinal cord--with oxygen and glucose. Brain cells start dying after just one minute without oxygen. The brain is the control center for all of the body's homeostatic processes.
