please please helppp meee A mammalogist is studying the behavior of the rain forest jaguar. She spots a jaguar
crouched on a tree branch in the understory, waiting to pounce on a rain forest herbivore
called a tapir. The hair of the jaguar is white with black spots. The jaguar has learned the
habits of this tapir, and he knows it uses this trail each evening. The cat is panting in the
steamy heat to stay cool, and its muscles tense as the tapir approaches. The jaguar pounces
and stabs its prey with long, sharp incisors. Although its meal is large, it will need to hunt
and eat again in a day or two to ward off its hunger.
Compose a four-to five-sentence paragraph that summarizes the general mammal
characteristics you can identify from the details of the story about the jaguar.

Answer:

The rainforest jaguar, exhibits a well-known mammal characteristic, as it waits for its opportunity to pounce on its prey. Mammals are known to be dominant in its environment, actively seeking its targets. Furthermore, the hairs on the jaguar would be an indicator of its status as a mammal. As mammals are known to have hair, and it is thus a mammal characteristic. They are known to be warm blooded, and one instance in the passage that hints at the jaguar's warm bloodedness would be when it pants in order to stay cool.

Note:

this is really vague lol, since I don't know your teacher's lesson plan, so I'm not sure what mammal characteristics are pointing towards (biological, or behavioral?) so note that this response might not be what your teacher is looking for.

On April 20, 2010, an explosion on the Deepwater Horizon Macondo oil well drilling platform released 4 million barrels (636,000 cubic meters) of oil into the Gulf of Mexico. It took scientists and engineers nearly three months and several different attempts to cap the well. The Macondo oil well was located 1524 m (5000 feet) below the surface of the water, about 80 km (50 miles) off the coast of Louisiana. The spill affected 2113 km (1300 miles) of shoreline along the coasts of five states. Most crude oil contains 84–87% carbon by weight. Scientists have not yet fully assessed the environmental impact of the accident.

Computer modeling can be used to help improve cleanup and response systems for the next major oil spill. Which of these uses demonstrates how computer modeling can be used to minimize the impact of another spill?
a
Creating a model of how the oil spread through the Gulf of Mexico to predict what areas need the greatest amount of protection.
b
Calculating the total oil that entered the Gulf of Mexico during the spill.
c
Recording the number and type of each dead organism collected during the spill.
d
Finding the average flow rate of the oil through the burst pipeline during the spill.
