Organisms that live in the rainforest have developed unique adaptations that aid in their survival. which adaptation would most likely be found in organisms living in the rainforest?
a.
herbivores feed on low-lying plants
b.
birds have beaks adapted to break open hard shells
c.
insects have a widely-varied diet
d.
plants are able to store water in their leaves

b. birds have beak adapted to break open hard shells.

Birds in the rain forests are adapted to perform different functions. It helps birds to capture their food, groom their features, defend their territories and attack predators. The shape of the beak defines a particular ecological niche of a particular bird. The shape of the beak are specially adapted to eat foods such as seeds, fruits, insects. The beaks becomes hard and pointed in order to break open pods, seeds, fruits available as food source in rain forests. Therefore, adaptation in beak allows birds to feed different types of food and allows them to switch to different sources of food if one source becomes scare in the rain forests.

Organisms like birds have adapted their beak to break open hard shells (b) which would most likely to be found in the rainforest.

Further Explanation:

Adaptation is a process of evolution or change according to the environment. This change can behavioral, physiological or the growth of species in accordance with changes in their environment and habitat.

Behavioral adaptation is the change in the behavior of the species according to their environment in which they can reproduce and survive.

Physiological adaptation is a kind of adaptation in which body responses to external stimuli according to the environment so that the species can survive and reproduce.

Structural adaptation is the adaptation of the change in the structure of species like the growth of beaks in birds, according to their environment so they can survive and chance or their survival increases with those conditions.

Birds living in the rainforest have developed structural adaptation that aid in their survival as they have beaks adapted to break open hard shells so they can survive better and reproduce.

both anaerobic and aerobic respiration use glucose (or other carbohydrates), proteins and lipids to produce atp and nadh. cell uses those energy molecules, obtained from food and   breaks them down during the chemical reactions of respiration. in anaerobic respiration, nadh is regenerated to nad+ by enzymes lactate dehydrogenase (lactate is produced, e.g. in muscle cells) or by alcohol dehydrogenase where ethanol is produced (alcohol fermentation), while in aerobic respiration, electrons from nadh are deposited in the mitochondria to regenerate nad+ (electron transport chain. anaerobic respiration produces 2 atp per molecule of glucose compared to aerobic respiration where about 38 atp molecules are produced.
