Question
Chapter 40, Problem 9TYK
Summary Introduction
Introduction: Animals are multicellular organisms that belong to the kingdom Animalia. Generally, animals have limited growth and definite shape. They have a nervous system and sensory system that allow a rapid response to stimuli. They can acquire food actively, move voluntarily, and digest the food internally.

Below are three statements - two of which are truths and one is a lie. Which of the following statements is a lie?
Select one:
a.Some organisms have the function to be responsive only, some have the ability for movement only, but organisms are rarely found to have both functionalities.
b.Organisms that are responsive yet are not capable of moving become more prone to dangers, injuries, and eventually lead to its death.
c.If an organism has no ability to be responsive to changes in both internal and external environment despite being able to move, then the organism is most likely to be susceptible to danger or even lead to its own death.

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_forwardIdentify the following examples as one of the above characteristics of life.
