I scored 54, lost one point to a typo

And 2 marks because the questions were not clear.

(Q8, correct answer tuatara, but amphesbia is also correct sue to their linage in the order sumata. You could also answer crocodiles etc if tuatara is correct.

Q34 Correct answer is probing, but i put both that and popping which is another "p" technique that can be used. )

And for the interesting part. I answered the following correct but:

3) Sea snakes and turtles breathe:
* With gills
**** With lungs ****
* Through their skin
* Through their chorion
Sea snakes ause transfer air through the skin. Brian Fry discovered that 20% of O2 intake is from the skin. This also allows dumping of nitrogen to prevent the bends.

7) Which is NOT a way to tell the difference between a frog and a toad?
* Frog skin is smooth; toads have warts 1
* Frogs live in or near water; adult toads may occur in drier habitats 2
* Frogs are slim and speedy; toads are fat-bodied and sluggish 3
**** Frogs lay their eggs in water; toads lay them on dry land ****
None of these are reliable methods.
1) example, smooth toad Bufo guttatus has no warts, and Kuhli's frog has warts
2) there are pond toads (fire bellied, europ's green toad) nd there are desert frogs (sonoron desrt frog)
3)Bull frogs, horned frogs, and pixie frogs are far from slim and fast, and spade foot toads are slender and jump around with agility.

And the last one, some species of frog and toad do not use water. for eggs, Foam nests, on their back, in dimples in the back etc. Some species carry them to water after, and others dont.

14, 3 species of boa lay eggs, mullers sand boa, calabar boa, and . Kenyans for instance are live bearers.




Yup, im a hair splitter!
