Question #N1101
The passage describes the life cycle of a particular species of butterfly. The butterfly has four stages of its life cycle: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. The eggs are laid on the leaves of plants, and the larvae hatch from the eggs and feed on the leaves. The larvae grow larger and larger and eventually pupate, forming a chrysalis. The pupa is a resting stage in which the butterfly undergoes metamorphosis. The adult butterfly emerges from the chrysalis. The text highlights the importance of the butterfly’s relationship with plants, describing the role of plants in providing food and shelter for the larvae, and the role of plants in the butterfly’s metamorphosis. It also discusses the butterfly’s relationship with other species, including the butterflies’ predators and the butterflies’ symbiotic relationship with ants. What is the central idea of the passage?
Which of the following best summarizes the central idea of the passage?Correct Answer is: D
The passage is about the butterfly’s life cycle, but the focus is on the butterfly’s relationship with other species, such as plants, predators, and ants. The passage shows how the butterfly’s life cycle is a process of interdependence that involves a complex web of relationships between the butterfly and other species.
