What are some of the adaptations for survival in the larvae stage of a monarch butterfly?
Monarch caterpillars exclusively eat the leaves of the milkweed plant. The liquid inside is poisonous and makes the caterpillar unpalatable to predators.
What are some behavioral adaptations that promote survival of butterflies are moths?
Flying
Do some worms grow from larvae?
No. Worms are hatched from a cocoon as tiny worms - there is no larval stage.
Do larva have spines?
Yes, some larvae do have spines, depending on the species. For example, certain insect larvae, like those of moths and butterflies, can have spiny projections for defense against predators. Additionally, some aquatic larvae, such as those of certain fish or amphibians, may also possess spines or spine-like structures. These adaptations serve various functions, including protection and camouflage.
What reproductive method produces organisms that possess adaptations for survival in a changing environment?
Sexual reproduction produces genetic variation through recombination, allowing for the creation of offspring with diverse traits. This diversity increases the chances of some offspring possessing adaptations that are well-suited for survival in changing environments.
What are the horse's survival adaptations?
The most important survival adaptation is that they can survive on the grain that is fed to them by humans. Horses are not meant to eat grain, but grass or hay, and that's why some horses have problems with ulcers and colic.
Why not all traits are adaptations?
Some traits are accidental. Genetics have an element of random variation whether by the recombination of genetics that comes with sexual reproduction, or by mutation, and while some changes can be selected for or selected against by the evolutionary pressure described as "survival of the fittest" there are also changes that make little if any difference to the survival of the organism or of the species, and so, they are not subject to evolutionary pressure. Therefore they are not adaptations, they are just accidents.
What is the difference between rhabditiform and filariform larvae of hookworms?
Well, sweetheart, rhabditiform larvae are the immature form of hookworms found in the soil, while filariform larvae are the infective form that can penetrate the skin of a host. So basically, one is playing in the dirt, and the other is ready to cause some trouble once it gets inside you. Hope that clears it up for ya!
What are beetle larvae called?
'Water tigers' is a name that's given to the larval stage of the diving beetle [Dysticidae family]. The name comes from the larvae's relentless pursuit of food sources. Like the adult stage, the larvae know how to hide amongst and flit through pond and stream vegetation. They're the terror of many small pond animals, of which particular favorites are glassworms [Chaoborus spp] and tadpoles.
What are the adaptations for survival for the Northern Pygmy owl?
Two adaptations of the Northern Pygmy owl are its small size and plumage pattern allowing it to camouflage with its surroundings very well.
What are some fossa adaptations?
what do fossa eat and what are some of their adaptations
Why are some living things almost similar in colour to their habitat?
Over time, the organisms that are successful in a determined habitat have traits that increase their chances of survival (adaptations). One of these adaptations is camouflage. When there is a mutation in the population that alters the color of the organism, the result can be negative and the organism is easier to see and gets eaten or it can be successful and helps the organism blend in and increases the chances for survival.
