BIOL 1902 Test 2 Questions With Complete Solutions
acclimation Correct Answers - Excess water is withdrawn and
evaporated from leaves
- Water is drawn out of the cells, which increases solute
concentration
- Protective sugars added to cells increasing solute concentration
- Allow ice to form between the cells, and cell membrane stays
safe
ALE Correct Answers anterior lateral eyes
allen's rule Correct Answers smaller extremities lose less heat
AME Correct Answers anterior median eyes
Avian adaptations to sub-zero temperatures Correct Answers
grow bulkier feathers, add subcutaneous fat for fuel, shiver to
generate heat
basking Correct Answers lying in warmth
behavioural freeze avoidance Correct Answers avoiding
freezing temperatures by moving to a location above the freeze
point (e.g. dormant snapping turtles where stream enters lake)
behavioural heat avoidance Correct Answers seeking cooler
sites
bergmann's tule Correct Answers lower surface area to volume
ratio loses less heat
, brown fat Correct Answers burned for warmth
browse line Correct Answers identifies where white-tailed deer
feed in the winter
caeca Correct Answers Further helps break down undigested
food passing through the intestine
central fovea Correct Answers used for seraching
cheeking Correct Answers using cheek teeth to grind and tear
apart plant material
cold hardiness Correct Answers Result of acclimation, the
ability for the plant to survive the extreme cold and drying
effects of winter.
Colour of leaves Correct Answers males are red, females
yellow
compound eyes Correct Answers made up by many
ommatidium, used by many insects like tiger and ground beetles
cones Correct Answers beneficial for detecting visual activity
contour feathers Correct Answers large feathers that give shape
to a bird's body and help with flying
coprophagy Correct Answers ingestion of feces
