Suppose you travel to a tropical place like the Bahamas and watch the coastal poikilotherms, such as fish, crabs, and starfish,

swim and crawl about in the warm waters. Suppose then that you travel to northern Maine and watch the related species of poikilotherms in the cold waters there. It would not be unreasonable to expect to see the animals in Maine moving about in slow motion compared to those in the Bahamas. In fact, however, rates of locomotion are likely to look to your eye to be more similar than different in the two places. Design experiments to assess whether the Maine animals are especially able to be active in cold waters. If you find that they are, how might their high ability for activity in cold waters be explained

Answer:

The correct answer is -

exposure of the opposite environments to the species and see if they are able to be active in cold waters.

If they are then species of organism in Maine and could have more ice-nucleating agents which are responsible for their high ability for activity in cold waters.

Explanation:

To test the assess if the Maine species of organisms are especially able to be active in cold waters an experiment can be designed where one needs to place the species or animals from Maine and Bahamas in reverse conditions.

Maine animals are placed in warm water environments and species from the Bahamas can be placed in cold water. Finding if they are able to adapt in reverse condition by calculating various processes and motion, if yes then  it shows that it is not a special ability to survive in cold temps. However, if it is not then the Maine poikilotherms are specially designed for their environment. In case of yes then species of organism in Maine and could have more ice-nucleating agents

It is crucial to study ocean microbes because _______.
Rudik [331]

It is crucial to study ocean microbes because THEY CONTROL THE MAJOR BIOGEOCHEMICAL CYCLES THAT KEEP EARTH'S BIOSPHERE IN BALANCE.

The ocean is made up of many microbes, which play important role in the process of biogeochemical cycling of various elements. For instance, microbes play very important role in the biogeochemical cycling of carbon and nitrogen. In the nitrogen cycle, the microbes are responsible for breaking down the protein molecules that are found in the body of dead plants and animals. The proteins are broken down into constituent amino acids, which are then released back into soils. The soil used these ammonia as sources of nitrogen for growing plants.
