Most living things follow the cycle of the seasons. True or false?
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Most living things follow the cycle of the seasons because they have adapted to the changing environmental conditions that occur throughout the year. This includes changes in temperature, daylight hours, and availability of food and resources. Many organisms, such as migratory birds, hibernating mammals, and plants that go through dormancy, rely on the seasons to carry out important life processes like reproduction, migration, and survival. The cycle of the seasons plays a crucial role in regulating biological rhythms and shaping the behavior, physiology, and life cycles of numerous species.

- D.

Correct Answer
A. Return from the south to build nests for their young.

Explanation
During the spring, birds return from the south to build nests for their young. This is a common behavior among many bird species as they migrate to warmer regions during the winter and then return to their breeding grounds in the spring. Building nests is an essential part of their reproductive cycle, as it provides a safe and secure environment for their offspring to hatch and grow.

- D.
  
  Grow their roots longer to help growth.
Correct Answer
B. Send sap to their branches to help growth.

Explanation
During spring, leafless trees send sap to their branches to help with growth. Sap is a nutrient-rich fluid that contains sugars, hormones, and minerals. It is produced in the roots and transported upwards through the xylem vessels to the branches and other parts of the tree. This sap provides essential nutrients and moisture to support the growth of new leaves, flowers, and fruits.

Explanation
June is the correct answer because in most parts of the world, summer begins in June. This is because June is the month when the summer solstice occurs, marking the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. During this time, the sun is at its highest point in the sky, resulting in longer days and warmer temperatures. Therefore, June is widely recognized as the start of the summer season.

Explanation
During the summer, baby insects undergo a process called metamorphosis, where they transform into adult insects.

This enables them to adapt and survive in their environment as mature insects.

While people may eat food and go to work or school throughout the year, sunbathing is typically associated with warm weather and longer daylight hours. It involves exposing oneself to the sun's rays to tan or relax, which is not commonly done during other seasons when the weather may be colder or less conducive to outdoor activities.
