Rijul and his family are taking a hike in the Georgia mountains. He reaches a waterfall and spots a bear. Rijul asks his family why there are no bears living near his home in Atlanta. His sister says that bears can only live in the mountains. Is Rijul’s sister correct?
Yes, bears only live in the mountains because they need a habitat with cooler temperatures.
No, bears can also be found in the coastal plain and the Piedmont region because food can easily be found in each region.
Yes, bears only live in the mountains because this habitat provides them with the food they need to survive.
No, bears can also be found in the Piedmont region and near the Okefenokee Swamp because food can easily be found in each region.

Why is the flower so tall?
. Does the flower need sunlight to grow?
How much water does the flower need to grow best?
. If I cut the flower and put it in a vase, how long would it live?
The mountain laurel plant only grows in the mountain habitat of Georgia. This plant grows on rocky slopes in forested areas. Could this plant survive in the marsh and swamp habitat?
Yes, even though the ground is soft, the mountain laurel would still get the water it needs to survive.
No, the mountain laurel could not survive since the marsh ground is very soft and does not contain the type of rocky soil that it needs to grow.
Yes, it can survive in the marsh and swamp habitat since it is a very hot and humid climate.
No, the mountain laurel could not survive since the marsh and swamp habitat never gets rain.
Pine trees are able to live in many habitats in Georgia, including the Piedmont habitat that has dense clay soil. What is the best question that scientists should ask to help them learn more about the other types of habitats that pine trees can live in?
Do pine trees provide shelter to other organisms?
What are other plants and trees that can live in clay soil?
Why do pine trees have needles on their branches and not leaves?
What do pine trees need to live (water, amount of sunlight, nutrients)?
The soil in the piedmont region of Georgia includes thick red clay. What is true of the plants that grow in this soil?
They have root networks near the top of the soil.
They need large branches that help keep them in the soil.
They need to have strong roots that can break through the clay.
They need broad stalks to take up nutrients from the clay.
The leaves on the trees in Georgia's mountain region often change colors and fall before the leaves on the trees in other regions of Georgia. Why does this most likely happen?
There are less animals to eat the leaves than in other regions.
The leaves on trees in the mountains are more likely to freeze earlier.
The trees in the mountains are not as strong as those in other regions.
All of the trees in other regions do not have leaves because they are evergreens.
Which of the birds would most likely have the biggest advantage if the food supply suddenly changed from seeds to nectar?
Bird W with its larger size, as it could visit less flowers and get more nectar.
Bird X with its larger eyes, as it could locate more flowers to get nectar.
Bird Y with its slender beak, as it could reach further inside flowers to get nectar.
Bird Z with its longer legs, as it could reach taller flowers to get nectar.
