Answer:

D. All scientists will be using one name for mountain lions.

Explanation:

Different names are given to the same animals around the world which is difficult for the scientist or people to memorize every name. So for that reason scientist chose a taxonomic system in which a scientific name was given to every specie that are living on earth. Scientists used a specific language for naming of different organisms i. e. Latin or Greek language.

What is the irony in the husband's refusal to lock the door
ser-zykov [4K]

  Strong winds enter the house through the open door, and the husband tells the wife to "Gae [go] out and bar the door." 

She, in summary, tells him to forget it.  She's the one who is busy working, not him. 

They make a pact that whoever speaks first will be the one to have to close and bar the door.  They are both stubborn, and stubbornness is really what the poem is about.  You could say stubbornness is the theme of the poem.

Year Population
enot [183]
The Answer would most likely be A. The reason for that is because if there is a decrease in hunting the population would grow as long with the surplus of food. If there is no animals hunting them for food then the population would grow. So the first one is only the one that would kill them off.
