Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. For flamingos, eating lots of shrimp causes them to be pink, and eating lots of algae causes them to be pale or white. For cotton - candy, adding "Boo Blue" makes it blue and adding "Silly Nilly" gives it a vanilla - flavored pink color. For the tongue, having taste buds stops one from eating rotten food and having saliva protects from germs and bacteria.
  2. We identify the cause - effect relationships based on the information provided in each description.

Answer:

  1. Effect of "Flamingos eat lots of shrimp.": Flamingos are pink. Effect of "Flamingos eat lots of algae.": Flamingos are pale or white.
