Example Question #1 :Why Animals Form Groups

Why do animals form groups?

Possible Answers:

They do not form groups

They enjoy having friends

To do as they are told

To help them survive

Correct answer:

To help them survive

Explanation:

Animals form groups to increase their chance of survival. The animals work together to hunt, raise their young, protect each other, and more. Survival would be much more difficult if some animals lived on their own rather than in a group.

Example Question #1 :Why Animals Form Groups

Meerkats live in large families. Some are look-outs while others care for the young. Other meerkats are in charge of digging tunnels, and some are hunters. The meerkats will trade jobs and take turns.

Meerkat, Herd, Meerkats, Group, Rodents

Why does living in this large family benefit the meerkats?

Possible Answers:

The meerkats like having company around and other animals to play with.

There is no benefit to meerkats living in family groups; they just do it out of habit.

There are more members to split up the work and help with survival needs.

The meerkats don't have to do as much work, so they get to be lazier.

Correct answer:

There are more members to split up the work and help with survival needs.

Explanation:

Living in a large family benefits the meerkats because they can split up the work and have members of the family working together to keep the family safe and healthy. Rather than all of the work falling on a few animals, it can be split up amongst dozens. Living in large groups like this help with protection, food collection, and general survival.

Example Question #2 :Why Animals Form Groups

Elephants live in large herds. When traveling, they keep the babies in the middle of the line or center of the group.

Elephant, Serengeti, National Park

How do these large groups help babies survive?

Possible Answers:

这些组织不帮助婴儿生存。

The group allows babies to drink more water.

These groups protect babies from predators.

The group keeps the babies from seeing the scenery.

Correct answer:

These groups protect babies from predators.

Explanation:

Large herds of elephants can be seen moving across the plains of Africa with their babies in the middle of the group's lines as they travel. If predators attack them, the babies are usually targets because they are smaller and weaker. If the female elephants keep them hidden and guarded, they are protected. This technique is to help babies survive.

Example Question #4 :Why Animals Form Groups

Fish are one of many animals who form groups for survival. They will form "bait balls" with hundreds (even thousands) of fish to scare away predators and make it more difficult for predators to catch them.

School, Fish, Underwater, Tropical

Fish form these groups to help them _____________.

Possible Answers:

survive

swim

hunt

splash

Correct answer:

survive

Explanation:

Fish form these "bait balls" to distract their predators and make it more difficult for them to be eaten. This technique is all about survival. Forming groups makes each fish safer than if they were swimming alone.

Example Question #5 :Why Animals Form Groups

It helps them to feel less lonely, have more fun, and play together

It helps them to find food, care for young, and protect one another

It does not help them to survive; it makes their lives worse

Correct answer:

It helps them to find food, care for young, and protect one another

Explanation:
