Q: Laid on dry land by reptiles, amniotic eggs have what that prevents them from drying out? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Loggerhead turtles spend most of their life in the ocean. Adult female loggerheads go ashore briefly to lay their eggs in the sand. Then they return to the water and leave the eggs to hatch on their own. Figure below shows baby loggerheads on a beach shortly after hatching. The baby turtles must make their way back to the water, hopefully without being snatched up by a predator. Loggerhead turtles are reptiles. Unlike amphibians, turtles and other reptiles can lay their eggs on dry land. That's because they produce amniotic eggs. Amniotic eggs have waterproof membranes to prevent them from drying out. Choices: - double shells - double yolks - oil coating - waterproof membranes A:

Q: Which type of respiration helps organisms generate quick bursts of speed, as opposed to long steady movement? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Each type of muscle fiber has advantages and disadvantages, which reflect their differing biochemical pathways. Aerobic respiration in red muscles full of mitochondria, produces a great deal of ATP from far less glucose - but slowly, over a long time. Anaerobic respiration in white muscle cells full of carbohydrates, produces ATP rapidly for quick bursts of speed, but a predator who continues pursuit may eventually catch a white-muscled prey. Choices: - insertion respiration - anabolic respiration - digestion respiration - anaerobic respiration A:
anaerobic respiration
