Two systems most directly interact in the fuzzy millipede's defense against ants are :
<u>muscular and integumentary</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
- The fuzzy millipede, Polyxenus fasciculatus, is found in Texas and is preyed upon by most species of ants.
- Most millipedes defend themselves with a variety of chemicals secreted from pores along the body, although the tiny bristle millipedes are covered with tufts of detachable bristles.
- Due to their lack of speed and their inability to bite or sting, millipedes' primary defence mechanism is to curl into a tight coil – protecting their delicate legs inside an armoured exoskeleton.
- Reproduction in most species is carried out by modified male legs called gonopods, which transfer packets of sperm to females.
- Millipedes overwinter, so they may hide in cracks or crevices throughout the whole winter and emerge in the spring.
- These insects live in dark, damp places and feed on decaying plant life, sometimes damaging crops. But they can serve a good purpose too.
- To protect itself against the ants, it ejects fibers from a tuft located at the tail end of its body. When an ant attacks, the millipede flexes its back end toward the ant and wipes the tufts against it.
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. Below are the choices that can be found elsewhere:
<span>A) 1.4 million atmospheres
B) 2.0 million atmospheres
C) 2.8 million atmospheres
<span>D) 3.1 million atmospheres
I believed the answer would be C which is </span></span>2.8 million atmospheres. I hope it helps.
Answer:
In the ocean
Explanation:
Ecological divergence leads to selection of essential traits against migrants and hybrid species. The full body plate type traits requires attention for occurrence in an environment which is free from issues such as resource limitation or predator attacks. In vast ocean spaces , resources are not a limiting factor in ocean and also there is no risk of predators as there is huge chunk of space, thus, full body plate type will occur in higher number in the ocean.

Answer:
99% water, sodium chloride, trace amounts of wastes, and vitamin C
Explanation:
Eccrine glands are the main and major sweat glands of our body. These glands are found all over the skin but their density is higher on palm, soles, and head.
99% of the secretion of the eccrine gland is water and in rest 1% it contains sodium, trace amounts of waste and a high amount of vitamin C is lost by the eccrine gland.
As the eccrine gland is responsible for sweating so it helps in thermoregulation in the body. As 99% of secretion is water therefore dehydration and water loss is the major worry during excessive sweating.
Answer:
A. 4 right handed coil:0, left- handed coil
Explanation:
According to MENDELION CROSS:
We will get NN, Nn,Nn,nn
NN, Nn, Nn are the 3 right handed coiling and nn is left handed coiling.
But in case of shell coiling in snails, maternal inheritance is applied in which offspring is decided only by phenotype.
Maternal traits: Here,female parent has right handed shell coiling. so, all the offsprings will have the same.
Hence, the phenotypic ratio will be:
4 Right handed coil: 0 Left handed coil
