a. To help them move faster
b. To get food easier
c. Helps them blend in better
d. Other animals will leave them alone
D. Other animals will leave them alone
A student caught a small alligator while on vacation in South Georgia. They would like to take it home to release in Lake Lanier near the Georgia Mountains. Would this be helpful or harmful for the alligator and why?
a. Helpful because the alligator could survive anywhere and eat some of the problem pests
b. Harmful because the alligator could not survive the cold winter in the mountains
c. Helpful because alligators can use the muddy parts of GA to build nests
d. Harmful because the alligator is going to eat everything.
B. Harmful because the mountains will be too cold
A farmer bought some land that was full of deer. He fenced the land and brought in some cattle. What might happen to the deer in the habitat?

Nothing. They will share the grass with the cattle and live in the fenced area.
The deer will migrate to another place because they don’t like cattle.
The number of deer will grow because the food is plentiful.
The deer will starve or move because there is not enough grass for both the cattle and deer.
Many animals have adaptations that help them survive the colder winter temperatures in Georgia. Would it be better if turtles migrate or hibernate? Explain your thinking.
It would be easier for turtles to migrate so they do not have to travel very far.
It would be easier for turtles to migrate so they can still eat and survive outside.
It would be easier for turtles to hibernate so they can still eat and survive outside.
It would be easier for turtles to hibernate so they do not have to travel very far.
4. It would be easier for turtles to hibernate so they do not have to travel very far.
I have rocky soil and cold cold winters.
What is the Mountain Habitat?
Bullfrogs living in the mountain region burrow in the mud and sleep during the cold winter months. What is another example of this type of adaptation in the wild?
Birds fly south during the winter months to stay warm.
Frogs have the same appearance and texture as a tree.
Bears sleep in a den after filling themselves with food for a few months.
An octopus takes the appearance of a fish to stay away from predators.
Bears sleep in a den after filling themselves with food for a few months.
What would happen to the crab that lives in the Atlantic Ocean if it were placed in a mountain habitat?
The crab would not likely survive because crabs need humidity and warm temperatures to survive.
The crab would not likely survive because crabs live in the water and cannot live without water.
The crab would survive because crabs do not have specific needs in order to survive.
The crab would survive because there is water near mountain ranges.
1.The crab would not likely survive because crabs need humidity and warm temperatures to survive.
Monarch Butterflies migrate from Mexico to the United States every spring. When the weather gets colder they move back to Mexico to hibernate in the trees.
