Humans and mice differ because a. their cells have different small organic molecules. b. their cells make different types of large biological molecules. c. their cells make different types of lipids. d. their cells have some differences in the sequence of nucleotides in their nucleic acids. in) their cells make different types of proteins.

The answer is d.their cells have some differences in the sequence of nucleotides in their nucleic acids

Human and mice is both mammals and have similar structure and metabolism. There should be no big differences in biological or organic molecule. The big differences should be the sequence of the nucleic acids in their DNA. Mice could produce similar protein in human, but the DNA is different.

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.
