- What is the primary advantage of maintaining a constant high body temperature? a. It saves us the energy from having to look for a comfortable temperature. b. It enables us to survive in warmer climates. c. It keeps the muscles ready for rapid, prolonged activity even in cold weather. d. Other things being equal, animals with a higher body temperature live longer than those with a lower temperature.arrow_forwardWhen animals hibernate, they lower their temperature. How would this reduce the rate of heat lost through conduction?arrow_forwardfor aquatic animals such as sharks, how do the animals maintain their body temperature when they are in warmer or colder waters? do they have a method where they can decrease or increase their body temperatures slightly such as torpor in birds?arrow_forward
- Refer to the figure showing hibernation patterns in a ground squirrel. Preparation for hibernation Hibernation season Reproductive season 40 30 20 August October March July One bout of hibernation (days to weeks) 40 6. 12 18 6. 12 Time (hours) Body temperature (°C) Metabolic rate (–) 20 Body temperature (°C) (–)arrow_forwardIn the context of animal adaptation, cite an example how warm and cold blooded animals attain a stable internal condition?arrow_forwardThe range of regulated body temperatures in mammals is about 36 to 40°C , while in birds it is slightly higher, 38 to 42°C, close to the limit compatible with life. Why do you imagine birds maintain higher body temperatures thanmammals? Do you think eagles and hummingbirds maintain the same body temperatures? Explain.arrow_forward
- How does sea otters stay warm differ from the way in which seals stay warm? Explain the mechanism for both.arrow_forwardDescribe how a snake moves by lateral undulation. Why might this form of locomotion be inefficient on an unstable surface (such as sand) or a surface lacking irregularities? What forms of locomotion would work for a snake under these conditions?arrow_forwardWhy do very small birds and mammals go into a state of torpor at night?arrow_forward
- Earthworms move through coordinated and peristaltic contractions of their body wall muscles. When the circular muscles within a segment contract... the coelom gains volume the segment gets narrower the segment gets shorter the worm moves backward the coelom reduces in volumearrow_forwardWhich component is responsible for initially stimulating a muscle contraction? a. proteins b. electrochemical signals c. plasma membranes d. striationsarrow_forward1. What is the relationship between respiration and temperature in fish? 2. What do you think is the relationship between fish behavior and temperature? 3. Does the data in the graph, support internal temperature regulation or external temperature regulation by the goldfish? 4. Does other factors (besides temperature) affect the rate of a fish? 5. What do you think happens to the activity of fish in cold climates during the winter months? 6. Why do you think cold-blooded animals, like the goldfish, change their breathing rate when the surrounding temperature changes?7. Is Thermal Homeostasis of a Gold Fish similar to thermal homeostasis in human? If not, what is the difference? 8. How do you think this might explain the results of a "Thermal Homeostasis Gold Fish" experiment?arrow_forward
