Cuticle layer of a plant


The cuticle layer of a plant is the waxy coating that helps prevent desiccation which is when plants lose water to air. These leaves have just that.

Arthropod


This millipede is an example of an arthropod because it is an invertebrate that has jointed limbs and a segmented body with and exoskeleton made of chitin.

Pollinator


This yellow jacket is an example of a pollinator because it carrys pollen from flower to flower as it feeds on the flower's nector.

Muscle fiber - Striated

My leg is an example of this because it is an elongated contractile cell under control of the somatic nervous system

Leaf-Gymnostperm

Are seed-bearing plants such as Conifers, cycads Ginkgo, and gnetales. Seeds are on either surface of scale or leaf like appendages of cones or at end of short stalks.

fish have two chambered hearts, built for them because they spend all their time in the water so it fits for them

Gastropod


A gastropod is a class of mollusks which typically has a one-pieced coiled shell and a flattened musclular foot with head bearing stalked eyes. Some examples of gastropods would be snails, whelks, and in this case, slugs. This slug is an example of a gastropod.
