Question

question 29 which two quotations best identify the benefits of animals’ ability to see in the dark? a. \species whose eyes glow have changed over time to see better in low light because they either forage for food or need to look out for predators throughout the night\ (paragraph 2) b. \in fact, domesticated cats can see in conditions that are only 16% as bright as what people require.\ (paragraph 2) c. \and a cat’s pupils can become up to 50% larger than human pupils in dim light. they also have a higher number of a specific type of light-sensing cell in the back of their eyes than we do.\ (paragraph 3) d. \a cat’s tapetum lucidum is made up of cells with crystals that, like a mirror, reflect light back to the retina. this gives the retina a second chance to absorb more light.\ (paragraph 6) e. \the tapetum lucidum is also useful to fish, dolphins, and other aquatic animals because it helps them see better in murky, dark water.\ (paragraph 10) f. \like cats, the lemur, and its close relative the bush baby – also known as a ‘night monkey’ – have a super-reflective tapetum made with riboflavin.\ (paragraph 12)

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To solve this, we analyze each option:

  • Option A: Explains that species with glowing eyes evolved to see better at night for foraging or avoiding predators, which are benefits of seeing in the dark.
  • Option B: Only states how well domesticated cats see in low light, not the benefits.
  • Option C: Describes cat eye structures for better vision, not benefits.
  • Option D: Explains how the tapetum works, not benefits.
  • Option E: States the tapetum helps aquatic animals see better in murky water, a benefit of seeing in the dark.
  • Option F: Describes the tapetum of other animals, not benefits.

So the two options that identify benefits are A and E.

Answer:

A. "Species whose eyes glow have changed over time to see better in low light because they either forage for food or need to look out for predators throughout the night" (Paragraph 2)
E. "The tapetum lucidum is also useful to fish, dolphins, and other aquatic animals because it helps them see better in murky, dark water." (Paragraph 10)
