Explanation:

1. First question about the griffin in biology

Biology studies real - living organisms. Since the griffin is a mythical creature and not real, it has no role in the science of biology.

Step1: Recall metric unit conversion

1 meter = 100 centimeters. So, 0.65 meters = 0.65×100 = 65 centimeters.

Answer:

(E) The griffin has no role in biology, because it is not real

2. Second question about the bush height measurements
