QUESTION: During the winter, many species of amphibians and reptiles go into a hibernation-like state called overwintering. They eat little or no food, slow their metabolism and breathing rate dramatically, and most of their bodily functions shut down. Interestingly, many of these species choose to spend the winter underwater. Why might it be advantageous to overwinter at the bottom of a pond rather than on land? EXPLAIN.arrow_forward
- Background: One of the most important steps that a scientist completes during an experiment is data processing and presentation. Data can be analyzed by the presentation of the data in table format (data table), or the processing of that data through graphical manipulation to visually discern the differences in the variables tested.

Provide three different structural adaptations used by three different animal phyla (plural for phylum), which aid in resisting the pull of gravity on land, allowing the organism to maintain its body shape/structure. As part of your answer, make sure to include 1. The name of the organism (common name or genus) 2. The phylum the animal belongs to 3. The specific structural adaption and how it works to resist the pull of gravity on land.
