To survive in the intertidal zone, aquatic organisms have adapted specialized exteriors. sea stars have thick skin, mussels have hard shells, and rockweed algae have a rubbery exterior. which tidal process causes such adaptations to be necessary in the intertidal zone? when the tide comes in, predator organisms arrive. when the tide comes in, water salinity increases. when the tide recedes, food resources decrease. when the tide recedes, organisms are exposed to the air.

When the tide recedes, organisms are exposed to the air.

Intertidal zone represent the part of the marine ecosystem, which exhibit shallow water and the marine organisms are partially exposed. This zone is exposed to high and low tides.

Sea stars have thick skin, mussels have hard shells, and rockweed algae have a rubbery exterior all these adaptations are beneficial when the tides recedes, organisms are exposed to the air. The animals in the intertidal zone  are exposed to danger of being eaten by land predators. Therefore, these adaptations provide them protection from being eaten and hunted by the land predators.

question: which statement best describes the different properties of metals?

answer: they are shiny and bend without breaking.

since metals have certain characteristics properties, they include the following: they are ductile, malleable, shiny, hard, lustrous, flexible and they are good conductor of heat and electricity. so therefore, metals are not dull and they are not non-flexible as listed. instead, they are shiny and flexible.

hope this , have a good day. c;

photosynthesis makes the glucose that is used in cellular respiration to make atp. the glucose is then turned back into carbon dioxide, which is used in photosynthesis. while water is broken down to form oxygen during photosynthesis, in cellular respiration oxygen is combined with hydrogen to form water.
