What else can I help you with?
Aquatic organisms are protected from freezing in northern climates because?
they have adapted physiological mechanisms such as antifreeze proteins or the ability to regulate their internal temperature. Additionally, water bodies have a higher heat capacity than air, providing thermal stability for aquatic organisms. Movement and flow of water can also prevent ice formation and help maintain a more stable temperature.
Why don't penguins get cold living on the ice?
They do get cold. They can even die from the cold. They are just adapted to stand cold better than other animals.
Do seals live in the tundra?
Seals can be found in the tundra regions near the coast, where they rely on ice-covered waters for hunting and resting. They adapted to the cold climate of the tundra and depend on sea ice for their survival.
What animals live in a glacier?
No animals permanently inhabit glaciers, as the extreme cold and lack of food make it difficult to support life. Some animals that may be found near glaciers include birds, such as snow buntings and ptarmigans, as well as mammals like mountain goats and marmots. These animals are adapted to cold environments but do not live directly on the glacier itself.
What biomes do the emperor penguin live in?
Emperor penguins primarily live and breed on the ice shelves and surrounding pack ice of Antarctica. They are adapted to survive in the harsh conditions of the Antarctic winter, where temperatures can drop below -40 degrees Celsius.
What are some organisms adapt to life on ice?
Polar Bears , oxen , reindeer, cantalope
How did some organisms survive without change when glacial ice moved into North America?
Some organisms might have survived the advance of glacial ice in North America by migrating to warmer regions or finding shelter in ice-free refugia, such as pockets of temperate climate or beneath the ice. Others may have adapted to the cold and harsh conditions by changing their behavior or physiology, allowing them to survive in the changing environment without necessarily undergoing significant evolutionary changes.
Are ice worms free-living or parasite?
Ice worms are free-living organisms. They are specifically adapted to live in glacial environments, thriving in the cold, meltwater ice and snow. Unlike parasites, which depend on a host for survival, ice worms are independent and play a role in the ecosystem by contributing to nutrient cycling in their habitats.
How did people adapt to the ice ages?
they hunted and adapted.
Is there been any signs of life on mars?
No, but there is confirmed ice caps on mars which means there is water and water can hold many different organisms so even though there is not an official report of life on mars, it could possibly sustain some kind of life.
How were Organisms created in the ocean?
There are many theories to this, but i will give you the two most common ones, 1. There was some sort of interaction between the earth and the sun that caused one celled organisms to arise 2. That one-celled organisms formed in oxygen bubbles inside ice, and when the ice thawed they were able to flourish. if you are asking this for school or any reason that will have an impact on your life, double check because i could always be wrong
Why are polar ice caps not considered a bioms?
Polar ice caps are not considered a biome because they lack the characteristics that define a biome, such as distinct vegetation and complex ecosystems. Instead, they are primarily characterized by extreme cold, ice, and limited biological activity. The harsh conditions support only a few specialized organisms, primarily microbial life, and some cold-adapted species, rather than a diverse range of flora and fauna typical of other biomes. Consequently, they are often classified as extreme environments rather than distinct ecological regions.
What are some real life examples of melting?
like glaciers,ice cream,ice and much more.
How does the density of ice compare to that of liquid water and why is that property important to aquatic organisms?
The density of ice is lower than that of liquid water because of its crystalline structure, allowing ice to float on water. This property is important to aquatic organisms because it insulates the water below, preventing it from freezing completely and providing a stable environment for organisms to survive in cold temperatures.
When glacial ice moved into North America some organisms survived without changing by .?
Moving to new areas.
When glacial ice moved into North America some organisms survived without change by what?
Moving to new areas.
How are organisms preserved?
Ice , amber, tar
