Describe how the behavior of prairie dogs secure the survival of their offspring.

Prairie dogs create a safe home for their young by creating underground burrows, which protect them from hailstorms, blizzards, floods, droughts, and fires. The burrow contains many different chambers, including a nursery that is very deep underground. This protects the young from predators as well as changes in the temperature outside. The burrows even include observation posts where they can watch for predators.

Explanation:

This is the sample response btw

c. earths continental crust is thicker than its lithosphere.

because, the lithosphere is the outermost layer of the earth/ 100 km thick and is defined by its machanical properties.the lithosphere contains oceanic and continental crust that varies in age and thickness across locations and geologic time. the lithosphere is the coolest layer of the earth in terms of temperature. the term lithosphere should not be confused with the use of "geosphere" which is used to indicate all of earth systems, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere   and biosphere. the surface of the earth can be divided into the continental crust and the oceanic crust.   the continental crust is made mostly of granite while the oceanic crust is made of basalt. the average thickness of the continental crust is 25 miles and the average thickness of the oceanic crust is 5 miles.   three types of rock, igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic, make up the surface of the earth. that's why 3 option is preferable.

if you add everything up correctly you should get 69 i got this because 50 plus 19 is it
