Which of the following represent the process of ACCLIMATION (select all that apply)? Group of answer choices A plant transplanted to a warmer from a cooler climate develops thicker, waxier coatings on its leaves. Carnivorous species have sharp teeth that allow them to tear flesh and subdue prey. Native Aleutians have barrel-shaped bodies with shorter arms and legs relative to their height to reduce heat loss. Global temperature increases in response to increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere from the burning of fossil fuels. Humans native to temperate latitudes tan in the summer months when exposure to the sun is greatest.

Which of the following scenarios do NOT represent homeostasis? O Cells adjusting the openings on the bottom of leaves respond to differences in water stress to maintain moisture inside the leaf. O When body temperature drops, you shiver to generate heat; when your body heats up, you sweat and the evaporation cools you. O Energy is captured by plants, then transferred to consumers and decomposers, and eventually lost as heat. O Sensors detect CO2 levels in the blood and trigger an increase or decrease in the rate of breathing.
Which of the following effects is produced by the high surface tension of water? Group of answer choices Organisms resist temperature changes, although they give off heat due to chemical reactions. Evaporation of sweat from the skin helps to keep people from overheating Lakes don't freeze solid in winter, despite low temperatures. A layer of strongly bonded water molecules occurs at the air-water interface Water flows upward from the roots to the leaves in plants.
Which among the following statements is incorrect about meristematic tissues? Meristematic tissues are quite small which allows large number of cell division Their cytoplasm is quite dense which means that they contain many cell organelles that help them increase their rate of respiration Their cell wall is thin which allows them to divide easily Larger vacuoles let them break easily and give mechanical support
All else being equal, a warm chameleon sitting on a sunny tree branch will experience a decrease in body temperature due to conduction if: It changes color, and its new hue is a lighter color, reducing the amount of energy the chameleon absorbs from the sun. The branch is cooler than the chameleon, and heat moves directly from the warmer animal to the cooler branch. It opens its mouth, allowing water to evaporate from its tongue and cheeks. OA cold breeze moves over the chameleon, transferring heat from the warmer chameleon to the cooler, moving air.
Which of the following statements is TRUE? Please choose the BEST answer. Select the correct response: All plants release carbon dioxide as waste material and capture oxygen gas to support mitochondrial activities. Plants migrating from one forest to another to prevent wildfires. In doing so, they would be able to protect their young seedlings. Plants living in extreme and dry environments reduced their broad leaves to become sharp spines. This is a clear sign of "Adaptation." All plants are photosynthetic and multicellular organisms.
Which of the following membrane activities requires energy from ATP hydrolysis? Group of answer choices water uptake of plants from roots to shoots movement of water using aquaporin absorption of dissolved nutrients in the small intestine transport of oxygen through the phospholipid layer
Goldfish are one of the most common aquatic pets. The average temperature to maintain healthy goldfish is between 72-75 degrees Fahrenheit. However, it is not unusual to find goldfish keeping office workers company in frigid cubicles as low as 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Mary noticed her goldfish opened and closed it’s operculum (protective covering for the gills) more often when the temperature in her office was warm. Worried, she may be harming her pet by keeping her office so cold, Mary set up an investigation to test the impact cold temperatures had on her goldfish’s respiration rate. Which of the following experiments would be best to investigate if goldfish maintain homeostasis during varying temperatures?
Which one of the following statements is INCORRECT? A bacteria and fungi help plants to return minerals to the soil Plant depends on animals for food and shelter. Animals need plants as a source of food Plant relies on animals to help them scatter their seeds.
You heard that regulating the internal body temperature is important for both plants and animals. Mesquite plants are found in hot, dry areas. What size of leaf would you expe mesquite plants, and why? O A. Large leaves so that the boundary area is large, leading to higher convection of heat B. Large leaves so that the boundary area is small, leading to higher convection of heat O C. Small leaves so that the boundary area is large, leading to higher convection of heat D. Small leaves so that the boundary area is small, leading to higher convection of heat Reset Selection
In which animals is water loss, in the short run, a passive process? What is the evidence for your answer to the previous question? In which animals is water loss, in the short run, not a passive process?
Arctic plants typically have hairy leaves because the large surface area maximizes warming during the growing season. Question options: True False Longer, thinner limbs will lose heat faster than shorter, thicker limbs. Question options: True False
Polypodium polypodioides is a type of fern that can withstand extreme dehydration by curling its fronds and shriveling its leaves. Once it is in contact with water, this plant will resurrect. Choose two physiological changes that happen once this plant revives. Choose 2 Restoration of photosynthetic capability Stomatal opening allowing the active state for gas exchange Still remain dry but its fronds will uncurl It will produce a flower
