What are some adaptations of spotted salamanders?
1. Males have developed a method to call female mates by making a croaking sound with their air bladders 2. They are able to disperse all year long and have adapted to high salinity and low salinity areas
What adaptations are necessary for organisms that live in the intertidal zone?
organisms need to adapt to dramatic changes in temperature,moisture,and salinity and must be able to withstand the force of wave action
Which areas of the ocean have the lowest salinity and why?
The lowest areas of salinity in an ocean are near where fresh water rivers empty into them. This is because the influx of fresh water creates an area of lower salinity compared to the remainder of the ocean.
Which areas of the ocean have high salinity Which have low salinity?
Red Sea and Persian Gulf are the areas with the highest salinity. Then the areas with lowest salinity would be the polar seas (or seas near to the polar tips), and sometimes some seas near a fresh body of water. For example, the South American area near Amazon River only has an average salinity of 28 o/oo. The Baltic Sea may have an average salinity of 5 o/oo. Hope this helps!!
Why is ocean water salinity different in tropical areas than at the north poles?
This is probably due to the fact that a majority of the water in the north pole is rather cold. Causing it to freeze, and since the water is what is frozen, and not the salt, it often times changes the salinity of the ocean water.
What is the adaptation to cord grass?
Adapted to changes in salinity (salt) and tempature due to changes in tides.
What area in the ocean is more likely to have the lowest salinity?
Areas near the poles like the Arctic Ocean will have the lowest salinity
How can adaptations cnage?
The animal changes to they adaptations, but the adaptations might change because of the animals dieing off so much.
What areas would the highest salinity be found?
an area with high rates of evaporation
The highest salinity would be found in what areas?
an area with high rates of evaporation
What oceans have salt in them?
AnswerAll oceans have salt in them. The average salinity of all oceans is 35 parts per thousand. Salinity does vary according to depth and location. Areas of the ocean located near onshore river runoff typically have a lower salinity. Areas near the tropics with high evaporation rates tend to have higher salinity.
What is a predator of a rock pool?
It needs to be able to adapt to sudden changes in temperature and salinity.
