A student performed an experiment in which she measured the change in temperature of a substance being heated over a constant flame for 20 minutes.
The initial temperature of the substance was 22 °C and the final temperature was
recorded to be 52 °C. What was the rate of temperature change for the duration
of the experiment? *

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.  

the answer is b.) hydrogen bonds between bases.

i believe it's c. the trait for large beaks will be passed on to future generations through natural selection.

since eventually smaller beaks would have to find another source of food or even eventually just die out from the lack of food.
