Question

The toucan uses its long beak to reach fruits and berries growing on trees in the forest. The energy stored in the fruit and berries is passed on to the toucan when it is eaten. What is the source of energy for the fruits and berries growing on the trees in the tropical forest?

A: Soil

B. Sunlight

C. Heat

D. Water

Answer 1

B. Sunlight

Plants use photosynthesis to convert light into cellular energy, which allows them to make “food” out of the water and nutrients from the soil.

Answer 2

The type of adaptations of the Toucan and Monstera Plant are physical adaptions. Both of these adapted physical characteristics help these organisms to survive. The difference in their physical adaptation is that in the Toucan, the physical characteristic helps the Toucan consume nutrients. Meanwhile, the adaptation of the Monstera Plant helps prevent harmful things such as mold.
