Porcupines
Porcupines are large, spine covered rodents that like a diet high in salt. Those in the Americas sometimes choose to live in trees, even though their distant relatives in Africa, Europe, and Asia prefer more grounded lifestyles. In the Order: rodent and Class: Rodentia, they need to gnaw constantly. Typical questions relate to the porcupine's uses of its quills, survival threats, preferred foods, interactions with people and wildlife, geographic ranges, and defensive behaviors.

Usually porcupines only breed once a year. They also breed in the season of Autumn.
How are plants and animals different from each other?
Why do porcupines have sharp quills?
No. The quills do loosen with time and can fall out on their own - just as our hair does everyday. On rare occassions, loose quills can fly off when a porcupine flicks its tail, but the porcupine doesn't know that the quill will come off and has no control over where they go. No, porcupines can't throw their quills. But they have a tiny barb--like a fishhook--at the end of each quill, so if a dog or other animal tries to bite them, the barb can hook into the dog and when the dog pulls away, the quill is pulled out of the porcupine and stays stuck in the dog's muzzle or mouth.
Do NOT try to pull out the quills! (If you do try to, the barb will tear the dog's flesh.) Since the quills tend to work their way deeper into the dog's flesh and can cause infections, a trip to the vet is called for. The vet will anesthetize the dog and cut out the quills.
After being quilled, a dog should be kept indoors during morning and evening twilight, since he/she is likely to seek out porcupines (presumably to get even!)

The number in the front of the equation. Example 2x-3k..so the 2 nd the 3 are the coefficent.
We all can forget some things on occasion. If a person is very busy or has a lot of problems their circuit board is just out of whack for awhile until things are resolved. Also being over-tired or stressed out over relationship problems. Sleep deprivation is another reason (not in a full REM sleep) so the person is walking around like a zombie for days to weeks. In older people (although young people have also been included in this recently) it can be problems with thyroid, adrenal gland or heart defects and in the elders mini strokes. If it continues for a couple of months it's a good idea to get a physical from your doctor.

What are two things water is used for in animals?
animals need water to drink. they can also go inside to swim or wash
A:In animals, water is the solvent that fills the cells, as well as the solvent in the blood.Within the cells, it provides structure to the cells, and a transport mechanism for molecules and nutrients around the cells.
Between the cells and in the blood, it also provides a transport mechanism for nutrients, cellular waste, and various other needs of the body, including the movement of whole cells.
On mucous membranes, it provides a barrier to prevent the cells from drying out, and a significant amount is lost providing this function, especially in the lungs.
It is also a solvent for the excretion of nitrogen and water soluble salts in the kidneys (Urine).
Water is a vital part of digestion, and provides a medium for food to be broken down in the digestive tract, as well as being transported along the digestive tract. Much of it is reabsorbed in the large intestine, although some will remain in the stools.
I believe that water is consumed in some metabolic stages, but there is a net production of water by the bodies metabolism through the conversion of hydrocarbons into carbon dioxide and water.
