Question

complete the chart to the right:

Answer:

To complete the chart, we analyze the wildebeest locations (from the maps) and infer rainfall patterns (typically, wildebeest follow rainfall for grass). Here's the step - by - step filling:

Step 1: January

• Wildebeest Location: From the January map, the wildebeest are in a southern - central area (e.g., around a region like Serengeti's southern part).
• Rainfall: In January, in the Serengeti - like region, rainfall is relatively low (dry season start? Or follow the pattern where early year has some rain, but let's assume based on migration: January - wildebeest in southern areas, rainfall: low - moderate (e.g., “Low” or a value, but since it's a chart, we describe the location and rainfall trend). Let's say Wildebeest Location: Southern Region; Rainfall: Low - Moderate.

Step 2: February

• Wildebeest Location: From the February map, similar to January, maybe a bit more concentrated in the south.
• Rainfall: Slightly increasing (towards the rainy season build - up). Wildebeest Location: Southern - Central; Rainfall: Moderate.

Step 3: March

• Wildebeest Location: March map shows wildebeest in a more central - southern area, maybe expanding.
• Rainfall: Rainfall starts to increase (pre - rainy season). Wildebeest Location: Central - Southern; Rainfall: Increasing.

Step 4: April

• Wildebeest Location: April map has wildebeest in a central area, moving north as rains come.
• Rainfall: High (rainy season). Wildebeest Location: Central; Rainfall: High.

Step 5: May

• Wildebeest Location: May map shows wildebeest moving north, in a more northern - central area.
• Rainfall: Still high but starting to transition? Or maybe the rainy season is peaking. Wildebeest Location: Northern - Central; Rainfall: High.

Step 6: June

• Wildebeest Location: June map has wildebeest in a northern area, following the grass (which grows after rain).
• Rainfall: Starting to decrease (end of rainy season). Wildebeest Location: Northern; Rainfall: Moderate - Low.

Step 7: July

• Wildebeest Location: July map shows wildebeest in the far north, maybe around the Mara region.
• Rainfall: Low (dry season in the north? Wait, no - the Mara has rains, but maybe the pattern is that as the south dries, they move north. Wait, actually, the Serengeti - Mara migration: in July, wildebeest are in the northern Serengeti/Mara. Rainfall in the north: Moderate (Mara has its rainy season around this time? Or maybe the south is dry, north has rain). Wildebeest Location: Northern (Mara - Serengeti North); Rainfall: Moderate.

Step 8: August

• Wildebeest Location: August map shows wildebeest still in the north, maybe more concentrated.
• Rainfall: Similar to July, moderate. Wildebeest Location: Northern (Mara); Rainfall: Moderate.

Step 9: September

• Wildebeest Location: September map shows wildebeest starting to move south, as the north's grass starts to dry.
• Rainfall: Decreasing in the north, increasing in the south? Wait, no - the south's dry season is ending. Wildebeest Location: Northern - Central (moving south); Rainfall: Low in North, Increasing in South (but for the location, we say where they are: Northern - Central; Rainfall: Low (North) / Increasing (South) - but the chart is per month, so for September, wildebeest in Northern - Central, Rainfall: Low (north) or transitioning.

Step 10: October

• Wildebeest Location: October map shows wildebeest moving further south, in a central - southern area.
• Rainfall: South is getting more rain (start of new rainy season in south). Wildebeest Location: Central - Southern; Rainfall: Increasing (South).

Step 11: November

• Wildebeest Location: November map has wildebeest in the south, more concentrated.
• Rainfall: High (south's rainy season). Wildebeest Location: Southern; Rainfall: High.

Step 12: December

• Wildebeest Location: December map shows wildebeest in the south, similar to November.
• Rainfall: High (south's rainy season continues). Wildebeest Location: Southern; Rainfall: High.

Now, filling the table (in a simplified, typical migration - rainfall pattern way):

Month	Wildebeest Location	Rainfall in that location
February	Southern - Central Region	Moderate
March	Central - Southern Region	Increasing
April	Central Region	High
May	Northern - Central Region	High
June	Northern Region	Moderate - Low
July	Northern (Mara - like) Region	Moderate
August	Northern Region	Moderate - Low
September	Northern - Central Region (moving south)	Low (North) / Increasing (South)
October	Central - Southern Region	Increasing (South)
November	Southern Region	High
December	Southern Region	High

If we assume numerical values (simplified, e.g., 0 - 100mm scale):

Month	Wildebeest Location	Rainfall (mm)
February	South - Central	40
March	Central - South	60
April	Central	100
May	North - Central	90
June	North	50
July	North	40
August	North	30
September	North - Central (moving south)	20 (North) / 50 (South)
October	Central - South	70
November	South	100
December	South	100

The key is that wildebeest migration follows rainfall (for grass growth), so we link the location (from the maps) to the expected rainfall pattern in the Serengeti - type ecosystem (where this migration is typical).
