Adaptations of Animals: A Case Study In this activity, you'll be asked to analyze two scenarios and provide a written response to the questions that follow. Case 1 The wood frog resides in the boreal forests of the north to the southern Appalachians. To survive the harsh temperature during...
In land spiders, among which females are usually larger than males, small male size has been attributed to the better mobility of smaller individuals, as generally males are the more mobile sex in spiders. In aquatic animals, larger individuals have mobility advantages over smaller ones. We ...
Foraging methods vary considerably among semiaquatic and fully aquatic mammals. Semiaquatic animals often find food in water yet consume it on land, but as truly obligate aquatic mammals, cetaceans (whales, dolphins, and porpoises) must acquire and ingest food underwater. It is hypothesized that ...
Aquatic plants have their roots underwater, but the upper half partially emerges from the water to enable photosynthesis Some of these issues are resolved by floating in water streams. Aquatic plants develop in a way such that their roots are in the water, but the upper half partially emerges...
Theneritic zoneis the part of the ocean environment that extends inshore at high tide to the edge of the continental shelf. Characteristics of the neritic zone include shallow waters and lots of light penetrating to the sea floor. A diverse range of aquatic animals and plants live in the neri...
