Answer:

b. help retain moisture in terrestrial habitats

Explanation:

Arthropods such as cockroach, centipedes, spiders, crab are the members of the largest phylum Arthropoda. These are animals with paired jointed legs and their body is covered with an exoskeleton made of chitin. They live in diversified habitat and exoskeleton helps to retain moisture in theterrestrial habitats.

Similarly mollusks such as sepia, snail are soft bodied animal whose body is covered with calcareous shell as a protection and to retain moisture while living on land.

Which of the following characteristics, structures, or processes is common to both bacteria and viruses? A. Metabolism B. Riboso
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

C. Genetic material composed of nucleic acid

Explanation:

The information needed by every organism to perform life functions like reproduction, growth etc are held in the genetic material that the organism carries in its genome. Every genetic material of organisms is composed of nucleic acids, which are only two in nature i.e. Ribonucleic acid (RNA) and Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). This is a common feature of all organisms including bacteria and viruses that they contain genetic material which must be in form of a nucleic acid.

The viruses do not undergo a cell division, neither do they contain protein synthesis structures called Ribosomes because they do not have the ability to reproduce or perform any living process outside a living host cell. This means that they strictly depend on another organism's transcriptional, translational, replicational ability to survive.

Stels [109]

A field habitat vegetated by grass and other non-woody plants (grasslands) is known as a meadow. They are of ecological benefit as they are open, sunny regions, which fascinate and support fauna and flora that could not survive in other conditions.  

In the given case, when a fungus colonizes the meadow and destructs the majority of its vegetation, which comprises species of small shrubs and grasses, then this may result in the decline of herbivore species due to lack of vegetation on which they survive, which will eventually result in the reduction of carnivore species, as they feed on herbivores.

During an action potential, the rapid decrease in sodium ion permeability and the simultaneous and rapid increase in potassium i
I am Lyosha [343]
The answer is repolarization. In the first phases of an action potential,
Sodium ions flow into the cell, through the voltage-gated ion channels, causing depolarization from the resting potential of -70 mV. In the later stages of the action potential, the potassium ion selective filter channels open and potassium ions move from inside of the cell to the outside. This repolarizes the cell before sodium ions begin to be pumped out of the cell.

What is the relationship between biodiversity and number of populations?
noname [10]
Biodiversity increases as the number of populations grow, because a greater population generally means a more diverse one.

However, this is not always true, so I'm not sure what answer they're looking for.
