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.
<u>The four types of interactions in communities are:</u>
- Mutualism
- Parasitism
- Commensalism
- Competition
<u>Definition of each interaction:</u>
<em>Mutualism: </em>
The type of interaction in which both the species involved are benefited, it is called mutualism.
<em>Parasitism:</em>
The type of interaction in which one species is benefited, whereas the other is harmed, it is called parasitism.
<em>Commensalism:</em>
The type of interaction in which one species gets benefited without harming or providing benefits to others is called commensalism.
<em>Competition:</em>
The type of interaction in which both species lose is called competition. It is opposite of mutualism.
<u>Symbiotic relationship:</u>
It refers to the type of interaction in which lastly one species gets benefited. The type of interactions such as <em>mutualism, commensalism, and Parasitism </em>are considered as symbiotic relationship.
Answer:
on channel-linked receptors, G-protein-linked receptors, and enzyme-linked receptors.
The ability of cells to communicate through chemical signals originated in single cells and was essential for the evolution of multicellular organisms. In multicellular organisms, cells send and receive chemical messages constantly to coordinate the actions of distant organs, tissues, and cells. Cells can receive a message, transfer the information across the plasma membrane, and then produce changes within the cell in response to the message. Single-celled organisms, like yeast and bacteria, communicate with each other to aid in mating and coordination. Cellular communication has developed as a means to communicate with the environment, produce biological changes, and, if necessary, ensure survival.
