Question

question 7 of 10
which of the following is a characteristic of diving ducks?
a they are generally found in shallow waters
b they can walk easily on land
c they spring into the air to take flight
d they get a running start on the water to take flight

Explanation:

Diving ducks are known for getting a running start on the water to take flight. They are typically found in deeper waters (not shallow, so A is wrong). Their legs are positioned more towards the rear of their bodies, making walking on land difficult (so B is wrong). They do not spring into the air to take flight like some other duck species (so C is wrong).

Answer:

D. They get a running start on the water to take flight
