Animals that stand primarily on all of their digits is considered a ___________ animal.
Explanation
A digitigrade animal is one that primarily stands on its digits, with the rest of its foot elevated off the ground. This type of locomotion is commonly seen in animals such as dogs, cats, and birds. By standing on their digits, these animals have a more efficient and agile way of moving. This adaptation allows them to move quickly and quietly, making them effective hunters or escape artists.Rate this question:

What stance is this animal?
Explanation
This animal is in a plantigrade stance, which means that it walks on the soles of its feet with the entire foot touching the ground. This is different from other stances such as digitigrade, where only the toes touch the ground, or unguligrade, where only the hooves touch the ground.Rate this question:
- 21.
What stance is this animal?
Explanation
Unguligrade refers to the stance of an animal that walks on the tips of its toes, with the weight of its body supported by hooves or nails. This type of stance is commonly seen in animals such as horses, deer, and goats. The term "unguligrade" is derived from the Latin words "ungula" meaning "hoof" and "gradus" meaning "step".Rate this question:

What stance is this animal?
Explanation
Unguligrade refers to the stance of an animal that walks on the tips of its toes, with the heel and wrist elevated. This type of stance is commonly seen in hooved animals such as horses, deer, and cows. The word "unguligrade" is derived from the Latin words "ungula" meaning "hoof" and "gradus" meaning "step". Animals with an unguligrade stance have adapted to distribute their weight evenly and efficiently while moving, allowing for swift and agile locomotion.Rate this question:

In the larget bones of the girdles and limbs in birds, the marrow cavity is largely replaced by extensions of body air sacs that are connected with the lungs, in a process called ________________.
Explanation
The process described in the question is called pneumatization. In birds, the marrow cavity in the large bones of the girdles and limbs is replaced by extensions of body air sacs that are connected with the lungs. This adaptation allows for a reduction in weight and increased buoyancy, making it easier for birds to fly. Pneumatization also provides a network of air passages that contribute to efficient respiration in birds.Rate this question:
