Toads are mostly terrestrial creatures but when they mature at the age of about three they return in early spring to the body of water in which they were born to spawn.
However, bryophytes have multicellular reproductive structures, whereas those of green algae are unicellular, and bryophytes are mostly terrestrial and have complex plant bodies, whereas the green algae are primarily aquatic and have less-complex forms.
The Olympic marmot's predators are mostly terrestrial mammals such as coyotes, cougars, and bobcats; however, it is also preyed on by avian raptors such as golden eagles.
Our results, coupled with the fact that caenolestids are mostly terrestrial animals [41] suggest that the ancestral morphotype of Marsupialia, as well as that of the Herpetotherium+Marsupialia clade, were more terrestrial than didelphids and than the ancestor of didelphimorphia.
Like most of the chlorellaleans, early-diverging core trebouxiophyceans are predominantly planktonic species, whereas core trebouxiophyceans occupying more derived lineages are mostly terrestrial or aeroterrestrial algae.
Like most of the chlorellaleans, early-diverging core trebouxiophyceans are predominantly planktonic species, whereas core trebouxiophyceans occupying later-diverging lineages are mostly terrestrial or aeroterrestrial algae.
Members of the Selaginellaceae family are mostly terrestrial, herbaceous and perennial plants and vary greatly in size, some small species have stems approximately 3 cm long, while larger species have stems 50 cm to approximately 1 m long, but under 2 cm tall.
However, most of the population live at relatively low altitudes (see below), so it is reasonable to assume the variation in dose rates seen in the analysis is mostly due to terrestrial gamma rays.
Another terrestrial genus, Geonemertes, is mostly found in Australasia but has species in the Seychelles, widely across the Indo-Pacific, in Tristan da Cunha in the South Atlantic, in Frankfurt, in the Canary Islands, in Madeira and in the Azores.
