Question

hawks can fly high above the ground. they use their sharp vision to search for prey. when a hawk sees a squirrel, it can dive to try to catch the squirrel. if the nerves in a hawks wings could not carry electrical signals, the hawk would not be able to hunt for prey. why? the hawks eyes would not be able to send information to its brain. the hawks brain would not be able to send information to its wing muscles. the hawks wing muscles would not be attached to its bones.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• First option: Eyes sending info to brain is about optic nerves, not wing nerves. Eliminate.
• Second option: Nerves in wings carry signals from brain to wing muscles (for movement like diving/hunting). If they can't carry signals, brain can't send info to wing muscles, so hawk can't hunt. This makes sense.
• Third option: Wing muscles' attachment to bones is unrelated to nerve electrical signals. Eliminate.

Answer:

The hawk's brain would not be able to send information to its wing muscles.
