Maps are a tool used to not only find locations and directions to a specific place but also a way to find patterns about Earth's landforms. When looking at this legend, we can see that the red triangles represent the most hazardous volcanoes in the state. Most of the high to very high hazard level volcanoes are located in Northern California. This pattern can be recognized based on the information from this map.

This is a true statement. Animals have specific receptors that do a specialized job. Animals use their five sense just like humans to take in information that later is processed. They may have different levels of abilities with the senses (exceptional eyesight, night vision, echolocation, etc.), but they all use them to receive information.

Animals have many different features that they use to receive information about their surroundings. For example, a cat can use its whiskers to determine whether its body would fit through a tight space. Moths use their sense of hearing to avoid being hunted by bats. Birds of prey have long-distance sight to be able to spot prey from far away.

Because fibrous roots can help hold a plant in the ground, in the event of flooding, this root system would help anchor the plant in place, thus allowing it to survive. While these types of roots do enable plants to absorb water, this ability alone would not cause the plant to survive an event such as a forest fire, lightning strike, or hurricane.

Animals take in information through their five senses, just like humans. Once the information is received, it is processed for understanding and reaction. The brain is the hub for all processing. The mind will send out messages to the rest of the body with instructions on how to react or behave with the information the five senses collected.

In order to answer this question correctly, we need to understand the terms in the answer choices.

Predation is when an organism hunts and kills another organism to eat.

Prey: Within the process of predation, the prey is the organism that gets killed.

Predator: Within the process of predation, the predator is the organism that does the killing.

Competition is when a habit has limited resources and there is a struggle between organisms within the habit to survive

The correct answer for this question is competition.

Andy is arguing that skin cannot help an animal survive, but he can be proven wrong. Many mammals, such as armadillos, hedgehogs, and porcupines, have protective skin features, such as quills and bony plates. These features of skin not only protect the animals from predators but also harsh habitats.

The passage explains that platypus use electroreception signals via their bills to locate prey. Their bill may first detect the signal, but their brains must process the signal to then begin their hunt. Remember that the brain processes all information received from the senses.

To answer this question, we need to recall the formula for speed:

We can plug in the known values from the question to solve:

This statement is false. Plants have many structures that are suited for survival. Leaves, roots, flowers, petals, stems, and seeds are all examples of a structure that a plant has that keeps it alive. Each feature plays a specific part in the plant's survival. Plants have adapted to their surroundings to have the best opportunity at life.
