What is an important characteristic of the eggshell of a reptile?
Reptile eggs are defined by having an amnios. Amphibian eggs must be deposited with water. This evolutionary development allowed reptiles to more effectively dominate the terrestrial world since their eggs would be able to survive the arid land.
What evolutionary change allowed for the great adaptive radiation of mammals?
A number of phylogenic novelties like endothermy with separated pulmonary and systemic circulatory systems (4 chamber hearts), and expanded cardiac output to handle the blood volume and support the high metabolic rates. Dental differentiation with 4 types of rooted teeth had combined with improved digestion to produce the metabolic base for an endothermic phylum able to rapidly expand once the opportunity was available. Until the niches opened with the last great extinction event the basic mammals would never have been able to compete against animals already highly adapted to their niches. The KT extinction allowed mammals to undergo the adaptive specializations needed to diversify into the range of modern species
Are you allowed aerosol's on airplane's?
Aerosols are allowed as long as they are NOT IN YOUR HAND LUGGAGE.
Why do you have terrestrial planets and gas giants?
As the Sun came into life, the lighter elements (hydrogen and helium etc) were "blasted" away from the Sun, while the heavier elements (iron and rock) stayed closer to the Sun. These heavier elements coalesced into the inner or terrestrial planets, while the lighter elements, now further from the Sun, passed, what is known as the ice line [See related link]. The reduction in temperature allowed the lighter elements to condense into solid particles and the gas giants or Jovian planets began to form. Many of the exoplanets that have been found are too close to their star to have formed in this manner but it is believed that they were formed outside of the ice line and have subsequently been drawn closer to their host star.
Are binoculars allowed on airplanes?
No problem.
Why does DragonVale say that you have purchased all the habitats 11 times?
The amount of habitats you are allowed is dependent on your level. If you are allowed 20 habitats, and you have purchased 17, it would say 17/20. You are at a level that allows 11, and you have 11, so it says 11/11.
What characteristic did the first terrestrial animal have that allowed them to survive on land?
a water tight skin

What type of physical changes allowed these species to survive in aquatic habitats?

Structural adaptation of mammals to terrestrial habitat?
They traded in there fins for some new legs that allowed them to move around on land.
What was it called when Monroe issued a statement to Europe warning them that no further colonization of north and south America was allowed?

What steps were taken by Rhodes in the colonization of Zimbabwe?

Why is there such wide ethnic diversity within African nations?
The African political boundaries were drawn without regard for ethnicities. Apex
How did god design a Green Sea Turtle to survive its habitat?
The theory of evolution allowed for the Green Sea Turtle to slowly change and adapt to its habitats over thousands of years.
What change allowed Europeans to travel further into Africa and begin colonization in the mid 1800s?
The discoveries of diamonds in 1867 and gold in 1886 in South Africa increased Europeans interest in colonizing the continent
