    An octopus has what colour blood(this is an easy one) - ProProfs

    An octopus has what colour blood(this is an easy one)

    • Blue

    • Black

    • Purple/orange

    • Red

    Correct Answer
    A. Blue
    Explanation
    Octopuses have blue blood because their blood contains a copper-based protein called hemocyanin, which gives it a blue color. Unlike humans and other vertebrates, who have iron-based hemoglobin in their blood, octopuses have evolved to use hemocyanin to transport oxygen throughout their bodies. Hemocyanin is less efficient than hemoglobin at carrying oxygen, but it is better suited for the low-oxygen environments in which octopuses often live, such as deep sea habitats. This adaptation allows octopuses to thrive in their unique environments.

    -How long is an adult anteaters tongue.

    • 1foot

    • 2foot

    • 3foot

    • 4foot

    Correct Answer
    A. 2foot
    Explanation
    An adult anteater's tongue is 2 feet long. Anteaters have long tongues that they use to catch ants and termites, which are their primary food source. The length of their tongue allows them to reach deep into ant hills and termite mounds to extract their prey. This adaptation is essential for their survival as it enables them to efficiently consume their preferred food.

    A. Biting into ints skull
    Explanation
    The jaguar kills its prey by biting into its skull. This method is effective as it allows the jaguar to quickly incapacitate its prey by inflicting a fatal blow to the brain or spinal cord. By targeting the skull, the jaguar ensures that its prey is unable to defend itself or escape, increasing its chances of a successful kill.
