what did you notice about the way the soil particles sank in the water? how was it different from the way the soil and sand particles sank?
what does the soil look like in the "soil" bottle? how is it different from the soil in the "soil and sand" bottle?
in the "soil and sand" bottle, which type of soil is on the bottom? why?
the amount of each size particle in soil is the particle size distribution. do you think this is a good way to determine particle size distribution? why or why not?

i need asap! i don't know how to answer the questions because i messed up the "soil" bottle and it is due today.

Many bird species build nests in which they raise their offspring. one of these species is known as the magnolia warbler. breeding pairs of magnolia warblers build nests out of pieces of grass and twigs. the female warbler will then lay her eggs in the nest and sit on the eggs for a few weeks until they hatch. after the offspring have hatched, the female will continue to sit on the newborn chicks to keep them warm. both the male and the female bring food for the offspring to eat until the young are mature enough to find food on their own. which of these most likely describes why birds such as the magnolia warbler build nests in which to raise their offspring? a. nest building decreases the amount of energy used by the parent birds to raise their offspring to adulthood. b. nest building increases the probability that the offspring will survive and eventually produce offspring of their own. c. nest building decreases the amount of food that the offspring require the adult birds to provide. d. nest building increases the probability of the offspring being located by airborne predators.
