Read the passage and answer the question. The kakapo of New Zealand is the world's heaviest parrot and one of its strangest. It cannot fly; instead it climbs trees and walks long distances at night. With no land mammals to fear for millions of years, the kakapo developed a simple defence: when danger approaches, it freezes and relies on its green feathers to blend in with the forest. This worked well against birds of prey that hunt by sight, but it was useless against the cats, rats and stoats brought by humans, which hunt by smell. By the 1990s only about fifty birds survived. What can be inferred about New Zealand before humans arrived?

Why did the kakapo's defence fail against the animals brought by humans?

Read the passage and answer the question. The axolotl is a type of salamander found in the wild only in a small area of lakes and canals near Mexico City. Unlike most amphibians, it usually never changes into an adult land animal. Instead, it keeps its feathery external gills and lives in water all its life, while still being able to breed. Axolotls are also famous for their ability to regrow lost limbs and even parts of some organs, which makes them of great interest to medical researchers. Sadly, the wild population has declined sharply because of pollution and the growth of the city. In the last sentence, what does 'declined sharply' mean?

Read the passage and answer the question. Elephants communicate not only with trumpeting calls but also with deep rumbles, many of which are too low in pitch for human ears to hear. These low-frequency sounds can travel several kilometres through the air and the ground. Researchers believe that elephants may detect some of these vibrations through sensitive nerve endings in their feet and trunks. This could help separated family groups to stay in touch and to coordinate their movements across large areas. How certain are researchers that elephants sense vibrations through their feet?

Read the passage and answer the question. Emperor penguins breed during the Antarctic winter, when temperatures can fall below -40 °C. After the female lays a single egg, she passes it to the male and returns to the sea to feed. For about two months the male balances the egg on his feet, covering it with a warm fold of skin, and eats nothing at all. Thousands of males huddle together in a tight group, taking turns to stand on the cold outer edge. When the chick hatches, the female usually returns to take over its care. Which word best describes the males' behaviour in the huddle?
