What physical and behavioral adaptations do zebras have that them evade predators? a. live in families and travel in large numbers for protection; bunch together to confuse the predator with their stripes or run away at speeds up to 40 m. p.h; .sharp teeth and strong hoofs to defend themselves b. live solitary lives unless feeding when they bunch together for protection; short legs and necks so predators have harder time holding on when attacked; stripes so they blend in with their surroundings c. live in families and travel in large numbers for protection; sharp teeth for defense; develop stripes as they mature to better blend in with the herd because they are provided less protection from their parents d. feed primarily at night for safety from predators; scatter to feed so predators have a harder time finding them; long necks to see over tall grasses and spot predators before they get too close

What are the characteristics of living things

Bisphenol a (often called bpa) is a chemical found in products that people use every day, from water bottles to food containers to children's toys. unfortunately, bpa leaches out of its many products and makes its way into our bodies. what are the health effects of bpa exposure? ongoing research is finding that elevated exposure to bpa can affect a wide variety of developmental and physiological processes, but one of the first studies of bpa's health effects came about because of a simple mistake in the lab. at a laboratory at case western reserve university in 1998, geneticist patricia hunt was making a routine check of her female lab mice. as she extracted and examined developing eggs from the ovaries, she began to wonder what had gone wrong. she noticed that many of the eggs showed problems with their chromosomes, and some had irregular amounts of genetic material, which can lead to miscarriages and birth defects in mammals. she learned that a lab assistant had mistakenly washed the plastic mouse cages and water bottles with a harsh soap, releasing bpa from the plastic. knowing that bpa is an endocrine disruptor, a chemical that can enter organisms and mimic hormones, hunt set out to discover whether it had adversely affected her mice.
