Homeostasis is the process of maintaining a cell's environment. This includes the regulation of sodium ion (Na+) concentration within the
cytoplasm. If too much Na+ is inside a cell, how can the concentration be
changed?

A) More Na+ ions will be transported in through membrane protein channels

B) Excess Na+ ions will leave the cell via osmosis

C) More Na+ ions will enter the cell through the plasma membrane

D) Excess Na+ ions will be transported out though membrane protein channels

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.
