Question

the selection states that it can take an octopus a long time to catch its dinner. for which two reasons does it take so long? a it has to crawl along very slowly. b it has to wait until nighttime to hunt. c it has to wait until daytime to hunt. d it has to eat very slowly. e it has to wait to find something to eat.

Explanation:

Octopuses are ambush - predators. They often wait patiently for prey to come within reach. Also, they need to find suitable prey. Crawling speed is not the main reason for long - time hunting, and there is no indication they are restricted to hunting only at night or day. Eating slowly is about the consumption process, not catching.

Answer:

E. It has to wait to find something to eat
