Answer:

salt draws the liquid out of the snail by moving the liquid from a low concentration to a high concentration to balance the concentration of salt and liquid between the snail and salt barrier.

Explanation:

salt pulls the liquid from the snail. because snails are slimy and filled with liquid, when coming in contact with salt the liquid from the snail tries to balance out the concentration of liquid by leaving the snail and binding with the salt which dehydrated and kills the snail.

enyata [817]

Answer: The correct answer for the first question is- B) Mechanical.

Adaptation can be described as a process of change in an organism over time that facilitates its survival in the changing environmental conditions. It results due to mutation or genetic change in the individual that gives a benefit to the organism. It exhibits change in structure ( like succulent plants in desert), function, or behavior.

Mechanical is not a type of adaptation as it deals with movement of objects.

The correct answer for second question is- C) Variations.

Variation among organisms in a population results from change in the genetic material or their genetic sequences. Change at the genetic level is thus reflected in the phenotypes ( like different color of feathers in birds).

Thus, difference is in the feather color reflects variations.
