Owls are omnivores, which eat a variety of small mammals and birds when they are available, but substitute fruit and seeds when they are not. 3. If an owl regurgitates 2 pellets per day, and each pellet typically contains the remains of four small rodents, how many rodents does an owl consume in one week? 4. What is the name of the bone in the upper arm of humans? ne the diagrams on page 2 of the lab exercise, then answer the questions . On the rat and frog skeleton pictures, what number corresponds with the same bone as listed in answer 4 above? On the rat skeleton picture, what bone is number 1 pointing to? Which number is pointing to the pelvis on the frog? Which number is pointing to the pelvis on the bird? Which number is pointing to the pelvis on the rat? True or False. The bone labeled as #2 on the frog is the femur. True or False. All the organisms illustrated on page 2 would be considered vertebrates.

Explanation / Answer

1. True.

2. False owls are carnivores

3. 1 pellet= 4 rodents

2 pellets = 8 rodents = number of rodents in a day

Number of rodents in a weeK = 8*7= 56

4. Humerus

Humerus corresponds to part marked as 3

Structure 1 is femur

Number 1 corresponds to pelvis on the frog.

On bird pelvis is 2

On rat also pelvis is marked 2

True bone 2 on frog is femur

True all organisms are vertebrate
