true
false
question 2 (mandatory) (2 points)
ectotherms change their temperature by modifying their behavior.
true
false
question 3 (mandatory) (2 points)
mammals feed their young with insects, plants, and roots
true

Explanation:

• Question 1: Amniotes have amniotic eggs. The amniotic cavity within the egg contains amniotic fluid that bathes the embryo, providing a stable environment. So the statement is True.
• Question 2: Ectotherms (e.g., reptiles) rely on external sources of heat. They change their body temperature by modifying behaviors like basking in the sun (to warm up) or seeking shade (to cool down). So the statement is True.
• Question 3: Mammals feed their young with milk produced by mammary glands, not with insects, plants, and roots. So the statement is False.

Answer:

• Question 1: True
• Question 2: True
• Question 3: False
