The simplest way to settle this question was to determine the total water content in the animals to see if it decreases as they are kept for long periods on a dry diet If they slowly use up their water, the body should become increasingly dehydrated, and if they begin with a store of water, this should be evident from an initial high water content Results of such experiments with kangaroo rats on dry diets for more than weeks showed that the rats maintained their body weight There was no trend toward a decrease in water content during the long period of water deprivation When the kangaroo rats were given free access to water, they did not drink water They did nibble on small pieces of watermelon, but this did not change appreciably the water itent in their bodies, which remained at 66.3 % to 67.2 % during this period eu Li K a ho ay H oc H n ie M im iK Ph an V KHÓA HỌC PRO3M/PRO3MPLUS – CHINH PHỤC ĐIỂM 9+ MÔN TIẾNG ANH CÙNG CÔ VŨ MAI PHƯƠNG PRO 3M/3MPLUS – ÔN LUYỆN TỒN DIỆN CHO KÌ THI TỐT NGHIỆP THPT QUỐC GIA Biên soạn: Cô Vũ Thị Mai Phương – Ngoaingu24h.vn :T ge Pa This is very close to the water content of dry-fed animals (66.5 %), and the availability of free water, therefore, did not lead to any “storage” that could be meaningful as a water reserve This makes it reasonable to conclude that physiological storage of water is not a factor in the kangaroo rat’s ability to live on dry food Question 11 What is the topic of this passage? A Kangaroo rats B Water in the desert C Desert life D Physiological experiments Question 12 The word "expire" inline is closest in meaning to A become ill B die C shrink D dehydrate Question 13 Which of the following is NOT a source of water for the desert animals? A Desert plants B Metabolic conversion of carbohydrates in the body C The blood of other animals D Streams Question 14 The author states that the kangaroo rat is known for all of the following EXCEPT A the economy with which it uses available water B living without drinking water C breathing slowly and infrequently D manufacturing water internally Question 15 The word "parsimony" in line 10 is closest in meaning to A intelligence B desire C frugality D skill Question 16 It is implied by the author that desert animals can exist with little or no water because of A less need for water than other animals B many opportunities for them to find water C their ability to eat plants D their ability to adjust to the desert environment Question 17 According to the passage, the results of the experiments with kangaroo rats showed that A kangaroo rats store water for use during dry periods B kangaroo rats took advantage of free access to water C there was no significant change in body weight due to lack of water or accessibility to water D a dry diet seems detrimental to the kangaroo rat's health eu Li K a ho ay H oc H n ie M im iK Ph an V KHÓA HỌC PRO3M/PRO3MPLUS – CHINH PHỤC ĐIỂM 9+ MÔN TIẾNG ANH CÙNG CÔ VŨ MAI PHƯƠNG
