Answer:
Explanation:
A fall in temperature can also adversely affect cell and cell membranes. At low temperatures, the phospholipids' fatty acid tails are moving less and stiffer. This reduces the membrane's overall fluidity as well as reduces its permeability and perhaps limits the entry into the cells of vital chemicals like oxygen and glucose. Also, low temperatures can impede cell development by preventing cell size expansion.
In severe cases, such long term exposure to sub-freezing temperatures, fluid in the cell can start solidifying and can form crystals that breach the membrane and destroy the cell.
No, since it is an island separate from the mainland Ecuador and has been uniquely isolated over the past several hundred thousand years, the species on the Galapagos Islands have had time to evolve differently and separately than those in Ecuador, leading to many different, diverse species on the Galapagos that don't exist in Ecuador
