Drawing Conclusions Practice Test
•15 QuestionsThe archerfish is a true hunter of the water. Instead of chasing its prey, it uses a special trick. It swims just below the surface and looks for insects resting on leaves or branches hanging over the water. Once it spots a target, the archerfish takes aim. By pressing its tongue against a groove in the roof of its mouth, it forms a narrow channel. Then, with a powerful squeeze of its gills, it shoots a jet of water with amazing accuracy. The force of the water knocks the unsuspecting insect off its perch and into the water, where the archerfish can quickly gobble it up. Young archerfish are not as skilled; their first few shots are often clumsy and miss the mark. They must practice to become expert marksmen.
