Question

A wildfire burns through a field. Which organism has the best chance to survive and return to the field?(1 point)
Responses


a dandelion at the center of the field


a bluebird that sits in a tree in the field

a skunk that has a burrow in the field



a ladybug that lives among the grass in the field

Answer 1

The dandelion has the best chance of survival and returning to the field after a wildfire. Dandelions can survive fires because their seeds can remain underground, protected from the heat of the fire, and can still sprout after the fire has passed. The other organisms may have a more difficult time surviving the heat and destruction caused by the fire.
