Answer the following question given this paragraph: Some arthropods have special excretory structures. They are called coxal glands and Malphigian tubules. Coxal glands collect and concentrate liquid waste from blood. They excrete the waste from the body through a pore. Malphigian tubules carry waste from the digestive tract to the anus. The waste is excreted through the anus. Q: In arthropods, coxal glands and malphigian tubules perform what role? Choices: - ingestion - reproduction - photosynthesis - excretion A:
excretion
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Temperature is the quantity measured by a thermometer. Temperature is related to the average kinetic energy of atoms and molecules in a system. Absolute zero is the temperature at which there is no molecular motion. There are three main temperature scales: Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin. Temperatures on one scale can be converted to temperatures on another scale using the following equations:. Q: What does a thermometer measure? Choices: - oxygen - precipitation - size - temperature A:
temperature
