Most land vertebrates cannot drink seawater because their bodies are not adapted to process the high levels of salt found in seawater. Drinking seawater can lead to dehydration and damage to their internal organs.
Most of the water you drink is absorbed in the small intestine of the body.
There are 6 species of porpoise. Naturally the vertebrates differ. The most recorded is that of the finless porpoise, with only 58 to 65 vertebrates.
Mangroves are most likely to be found in saltwater bodies of water, such as estuaries, lagoons, and coastal areas. They thrive in brackish water where freshwater mixes with seawater.
Yes, marine ecosystem water contains dissolved salt, which contributes to the salinity of the water. The salt comes from various sources, such as weathering of rocks, volcanic activity, and runoff from the land.
The tropical rainforest biome covers most of the land mass near Earth's equator. This biome is characterized by high temperatures, abundant rainfall, and dense vegetation, supporting a wide variety of plant and animal species.
No. Tortoises are purely terrestrial. (They only live on land). Tortoises get most of their moisture from the plants they eat, but also occasionally drink fresh water.
Dinosaurs
About 70%, like most land vertebrates.
Yes. Most reptiles have backbones, which makes them vertebrates.
Arthropods have had more time to co-evolve with land plants than other vertebrates.
There were many challenges that vertebrates had to overcome in order for them to colonize land habitats. Three of the most challenging tasks that vertebrates had was to learn how to eat the food on the land to sustain their energy and nutritional needs, how to breath, and how to defend themselves against predators.
No , no , Amphibia is not most successful group of land vertebrates .It is least successful .
Most amphibians are semiaquatic, spending part of their lives in water and part on land.
According to my college biology professor, birds have the most efficient lungs of all LAND vertebrates.
Rainfall is NOT one of the sources of dissolved salts in seawater. Salt in seawater comes from the erosion of rocks on land, underwater volcanic activity, and the release of minerals from hydrothermal vents.
Sodium chloride is the most important salt in the seawater.
