3. What is the difference between the mantle and the lithosphere? *

The mantle is comprised of liquid stone called magma. ... Everything except the highest segment of the mantle is a piece of the asthenosphere, which alludes to the fluid zone of the internal Earth. The highest bit of the mantle makes up the base segment of the lithosphere.

Explanation:

as the gila monster consumes the eggs or young of the desert cottontail and gambel's quail, thus its main food supply is only accessible for a restricted time duration every year. however, for this, the gila monsters exhibit three adaptations, which elevate their survival rate in the desert condition.  

first, is that they possess huge bodies, and can consume greater concentrations of food during a small period. secondly, they require to feed infrequently as they can accumulate fat in their tails. ultimately, their rate of metabolism is very low, so that they can burn their reservoirs of fat gradually.
