What country is ALMOST a whole country?
This question makes no sense. If a country is sovereign, then it is a whole country. There is no such thing as a partial or half country.
Or are you referring to a situation such as North and South Korea? Both are technically one country: Korea. However, the country is currently divided in two, meaning it is not whole. But it is expected to unite again, either peacefully or by force.
Do animals in the desert use mimicry?
Yes, there are animals in the desert that use mimicry. In American Deserts, gopher snakes (bullsnakes) do a good job of mimicking the venomous rattlesnake and others such as the sand snake and some kingsnakes, mimic the venomous coral snake in their coloration. Insects, such as the walking stick, mimic a plant stem while a katydid mimics a leaf.

What is the desert on the southwest coast?
Please specify which continent. If you are referring to Africa, the Namib is on the southwest coast.
What organism would die out if the temperature dropped 50 degrees in the desert?
You need to provide a point of reference. If the temperature is 100 degrees F and drops to 50 degrees, that is still a comfortable temperature for most organisms. However, if the temperature is 50 degrees and drops to zero, many organisms would be adversely affected, especially if the temperature remained cold for an extended period.
Which season has hot days and cold nights?
There are four different seasons. Fall is the season that has both hot and cold days.

How do the desert animals adapt to the desert?
Adaptations that help animals survive in the desert include:
2.Inability to sweat.
3.The legs developed in order to walk in the sand.
Desert animals are adapted to high temperatures hence they mostly have big ears or feet to dissipate heat easily . The monarch lizard changes it's legs from one to another after staying on the ground for some time
Shifting to a nocturnal schedule, drawing moisture from plants, but also learning to dig for underground moisture, decreased body weight, and thinner coat patterns (for the fur-bearing animals).
Well, they either fight to the death with other animals for food, shelter, and water; find water and eat other animals; or they don't adapt quick enough and die out.
thick lips for eating thistle, color of fur for sun reflection, broad hooves for walking in sand, and many others.
Each organism adapts differently. Most desert organisms are adapted to the heat and lack of water
Different animals have different adaptations, some are good at burrowing under the earth during the day, some can store fat (like camels) so they can go for weeks without eating, some are good at conserving/finding water.
they can withstand the day time heat or they are nocturnal. they can go with very little water for a very little time. lastly they usually live in an underground burrow
Some adaptations are change in skin, feather, or scale color and claws to grip on to stuff.

2.Inability to sweat.

There are lots of different adaptations that animals need to make to be able to survive in the desert. There are also some extremely important ones. Some of these extremely important are life depending ones.
Two of the most important ones are the following:
One of the ways the animals who live in the desert do this is by hiding in the shade and keeping as much of the heat off them as possible.
As there is not enough water they get most of their fluids from the following:
Other animals have certain parts of their body which helps them to not loose as much fluids as other animals might do.
thich pads on feet, big eyelashes, sandy colored fur, and thick fur, long legs, big coks
Store water(camel), large surface area on ground as to not sink(camel), use up less energy, urine contains less liquid, etc.....
Some adaptations include:
-storing water in their bodies (some lizards do it, they store water in their tails)
-Come out to feed when the temperatures aren't very high or low, and usually sleep during that time.
-Minimizing the loss of water (dry feces, urinate rarely, and through breathing as wel)
-Adapting to hyperthermia (being able to survive high temperatures).
-Getting rid of body heat through evapration. (Big ears in wild rabbits)
to be able to go long periods of time without any water or liquid and to survive the heat
Having large ears. they act as radiators. the blood that travels through the ears are cooled down. And be able to survive for long periods of time with little or no water at all.
What is great sandy desert temperature?
Summer daytime temperatures are some of the hottest in Australia.The range on the northern border near the Kimberley at Halls Creek is around 37 to 38 C (99 to 100 F), but this would be indicative of the low end of the range.Regions further south average 38 to 42 C (100 to 108 F) except when monsoonal cloud cover is active.
No, the yak does not live in the desert. The primary habitat of wild yaks consists of treeless uplands between 3,000 and 5,500 m (9,800 and 18,000 ft), dominated by mountains and plateaus. They are most commonly found in alpine meadows with a relatively thick carpet of grasses and sedges, rather than the more barren steppe country.
