list 5 animals that live in the desert. Write a paragraph telling me how they can survive in this particular biome. What feature
NARA [144]

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.

Substances which will glow in the dark after being exposed to sunlight are called :
mezya [45]

Answer:

D. / 4 - Phosphorescents

Explanation:

Phosphorescence occurs when light is absorved by a material, and when the material is in the dark we can see how radiation is emitted from the object, in the form of light. Phosphorescent materials are called phosphorescents.

Facts/notes:

  • This does not occur immediately
  • It occurs from a longer time than fluorescence (because electrons take longer to slow down their movement)
  • It is a photoluminescence
  • Remember that bioluminescence is not strictly related to phosphorescence. It's a type chemiluminescence.
  • For a more detalied understaning you should read about excitation, types of excitation and how this causes/affects phosphorescence.

Hope it helped,

Fructose is? also known as dextrose. the sweetest of the sugars. abundant in whole grains. a starch. known as milk sugar.
Elina [12.6K]

Dextrose and fructose are both types of sugar. the sugar with the best flavor. plenty of whole grains. the starch. called milk sugar.

It is also found naturally in other plant foods such as honey, sugar beets, sugar cane, and vegetables.  Fructose is the  sweetest naturally occurring carbohydrate, 1.2 to 1.8 times more  sweeter than sucrose (table sugar). is the sweetness of Fructose metabolism does not require insulin and has little effect on blood sugar levels.  There are many different types of sugar, some  more common than others. Fructose, like glucose, is a type of sugar known as a simple sugar or "simple sugar". Monosaccharides can be combined to form disaccharides, the most common of which is sucrose, or "sugar." Sucrose is made up of 50% fructose and 50% glucose. Fructose and glucose have the same chemical formula (C6H12O6), but due to their different molecular structures,  fructose is 1.2 to 1.8 times sweeter than sucrose. In fact, fructose is the sweetest natural carbohydrate.

In nature, fructose is most commonly found as a component of sucrose. Fructose is also found in plants as a simple sugar, but that doesn't mean other sugars don't exist.
