Provide examplesarrow_forwardRead the following statements: ANIMAL AND PLANT PHYSIOLOGY Both plant biologists and animal biologists seek to understand how their focal organisms have evolved to interact with the environment. Despite this similarity in goals, the differing biology of plants and animals as well as other factors have led these scientific communities to diverge. Scientific discoveries that have occurred in each community in relative isolation may advance progress in the other community and set the stage for broad scientific syntheses. Integrative and Comparative Biology, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2002, Pages 409-414, https://doi.org/10.1093/icb/42.3.409 Environmental stress can be either natural or anthropogenic (i.e., resulting from human actions) in origin. Many environmental stresses, such as most hurricanes, droughts, floods, and fires are a periodic feature of life on Earth. In contrast, environmental stresses such as the production and release of new chemical compounds and large-scale land-use…arrow_forwardHow do cells in a multicellular organism communicate?arrow_forward
