Some common decomposers in Africa include fungi, bacteria, and certain insects like beetles and termites. These organisms play a vital role in breaking down dead organic matter and recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem.

An ostrich offspring is called a chick.

In the phylum Cnidaria, such as jellyfish and sea anemones, the gastrovascular cavity functions as both a digestive and excretory system. Waste and excess materials are expelled through the mouth or diffused out of the cells lining the cavity. Cnidarians do not have specialized excretory organs like kidneys.

The cranium is your brain. It is located inside your head and it thinks and tells your body what to do. :)

No, after telophase (a.k.a. during interphase) the chromosomes entangle as they replicate however it does again become possible for individual chromosomes to be distinguished in prophase as the chromosomes begin to 'coil up' or condense.

Pit bull puppies do not change colors as they grow older. However, their coat might lighten or darken slightly as they age, just like with other dog breeds. The color they are born with is typically the color they will have for the rest of their lives.

They usually get it from another infected animal. When they are either bitten are scratched. It's definitely a scary situation. If you have a pet you should get them vaccinated and if you are ever confronted by a animal that possibly may have rabies run! Because they are definitely coming after you.

Lactic acid build-up in the body can lead to a condition known as lactic acidosis, which can affect respiratory function by causing symptoms such as rapid breathing (tachypnea) and shortness of breath. Severe lactic acidosis can lead to respiratory failure if left untreated.

My APBT just had 12 pups in her litter. 2 died (one being the runt & did not survive the first night and the other she laid on the second day, I was not home but have been keeping a very close eye now.) Her mother had 13 in her first and only litter. Only 9 survived. APBT can have anywhere from 1-15 pups in a litter in my opinion. You never really know. I thought she was only going to have 5 or 6 because when I bred her they only had sex once. So, you never honestly know unless, of course, you go to the vet and get an ultra sound. Hope this helped!

The same sound as a unicorn

Animals such as dogs, cats, and certain insects can hear ultrasound frequencies that are beyond the range of human hearing. Whales and dolphins can also detect sounds in the infrasound range, which are lower than what humans can perceive.

The domestic horse has 64

Seals can be infected with rabies, but it is rare for them to carry and transmit the virus to humans. If you encounter a seal that is behaving abnormally or aggressively, it is best to stay away and report it to local wildlife authorities.

An animal with its skeleton on the outside is called an exoskeleton. It acts as a protective covering for the animal's body and provides structural support. Examples of animals with exoskeletons include insects, crustaceans, and arachnids.

Snails typically have two pairs of feelers, known as "tentacles." The longer pair, located at the top of their head, have eyes on the tips while the shorter pair help with their sense of smell and touch.

I worked with big cats for several years, and this is how and what they were fed. The larger males received twenty pounds of chicken, horsemeat or beef six days a week. The tigresses were given around fifteen pounds. Occasionally this was augmented by fresh deer, donated by local hunters. On day seven, they were given one dozen raw eggs, beaten up in a quart of milk, with a pound of cooked rice added to the mix. Then we added vitamins, and any meds they needed to it.

During hibernation, an animal's metabolic rate decreases significantly to conserve energy. Its heart rate and breathing slow down, and the body temperature drops to match the external environment. This state of reduced activity allows the animal to survive on stored fat reserves until food becomes more plentiful.

Paramecium reproduces asexually through binary fission, where the cell divides into two identical daughter cells. They can also undergo conjugation, a form of sexual reproduction, where genetic material is exchanged between two individual cells.

Testes are located outside the body in the scrotum to maintain a lower temperature for sperm production. Sperm are sensitive to high body temperature, so being outside helps keep them cool. Ovaries are internal as they do not require the same temperature conditions for egg production.

A dog typically has six liver lobes. Three of these lobes are larger and visible, while the other three are smaller and located closer to the stomach.

Each sex cell will contribute half of the genetic material needed to produce offspring. The egg from the female will contribute one set of chromosomes, while the sperm from the male will contribute the other set. These combined chromosomes will determine the genetic traits of the offspring.

Variation in the offspring of sexually reproducing organisms is the direct result of genetic recombination during the formation of gametes (sperm and egg) and the random mixing of genetic material from the two parents. This process increases genetic diversity within a population, allowing for adaptation to changing environments and evolution over time.

The alimentary canal of fetal pigs consists of the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine (duodenum, jejunum, ileum), large intestine (cecum, colon, rectum), and anus. These structures play a role in the digestion and absorption of nutrients, with some modifications present in fetal pigs compared to adult pigs for fetal development and nutrient absorption during early stages of life.
