What is the difference in adaptations between plants and animals of a polar region?
Plants and animals of the polar region require the conservation of heat and to some extent water. Most animals that have adapted to the cold environments, are shorter in stance, longer coats, shorter ears, all in an effort to conserve heat and energy. In contrast, a desert environment would exhibit animals with longer legs, long ears, shorter less thicker coats, in an effort to dissipate heat, rather than conserve it.
What is the living part of an ecosystem?
a living part of an ecosystem are biotic and abiotic { biotic is living and abiotic is nonliving] The living part of an ecosystem is probably referring to the plants and animals. And, they are broken down into smaller groups called communities.
What are the three largest climate regions?
Climate in a region can affect what plants and animals live there in three main ways; the first is temperature. Animals and plants each have a unique temperature range that they can exist in. For instance, the coldest regions of the planet have animals living there that can store fat as a buffer against the cold, or has animals that hibernate during the coldest parts. The second climate feature that affects what plants and animals live in a region is precipitation. Tropical plants need a great deal of moisture to survive, while cactus can survive with very little moisture. A third climate feature which dictates what animals and plants can live in a region is air movement. For instance, coastal regions are often very windy and only certain birds who are adapted for windy areas can live in coastal regions. Not all trees can withstand the high winds of coastal regions. Therefore, temperature, precipitation and air movement are three climactic features that affect what plants and animals live in a given region.
How are plants and animals different from non living things?
They are LIVING THINGS!
What do plants have that animals do not?
plants are living things
Do smaller animals live longer than bigger animals?
In general, smaller animals tend to live shorter lives than larger animals. This is known as the "rate-of-living theory," which suggests that animals with higher metabolic rates tend to have shorter lifespans. However, there are many exceptions to this rule, and lifespan can be influenced by a variety of factors such as genetics, environment, and evolutionary adaptations.
Animals living in the polar regions?
Penguins, polar bears
What type of animals and plants are living in the Georgia regions?

What other animals might you see living around the stingray?
Smaller animals like bacteria and plankton.
Describe the adaptation style of animals living in subtropical regions?
Many animals living in subtropical regions have adapted by becoming nocturnal. This allows them to avoid the hottest parts of the day. They also get most of their water from food. Plants have adapted to need little water.
During his trip on the Beagle Darwin found that?
plants and animals living on a continent seemed more closely related to each other than to plants and animals living in similar regions on other continents
How many animals were the in the time of Jesus?
By the time Jesus was living in nazareth, all species that became stinct in the last milenium were living still but most of the this species were from other regions.
Why do animals living in dry regions have dry scales?
Animals living in dry regions have dry scales to minimize water loss and adapt to their arid environments. These scales provide a protective barrier against harsh temperatures and reduce evaporation, helping them retain moisture. This adaptation is crucial for survival in habitats where water is scarce, allowing them to thrive despite the challenging conditions.
Why do most animals have a shorter life span than humans?
Mostly because we have medication that prevents us from getting fatal diseases. Also, we have better living conditions. Most animals have prey as well, so they are prey. But we are not.
Why are polar animals big?
Not all are big. Polar bears, whales and a few fish species are the only animals that are big living in the polar regions. All other animals, from caribou and muskox of the North to the penguins of the South are relatively small in stature.
Where in the world can you find penguins and polar bears living together?
Polar bears are animals of the Arctic regions. Penguins are found near Antarctica and the southern hemisphere.
What are the animals living with the tree kangaroo?
Possums, gliders, cuscuses and quolls, all arboreal marsupials, are most likely to live in the same regions as tree kangaroos.
