Answer:

1. seawalls

2. volcanic

3. mass wasting

4. ocean basin

5. erosion

Explanation:

Which statement best describes the current scientific view of birds?A) a group of feathered, ectothermic lizards that lack teeth
zmey [24]

Answer:

D) a group of feathered, endothermic dinosaurs

Explanation:

Birds are a group of endothermic  dinosaurs, characterized by feathers, epidermal structures that form plumage. Warm-blooded animal species (endothermic) maintain the body temperature higher than their environment.

Answer A is false because although birds are feathered and lack teeth, they are NOT ectothermic lizards.

Answer B is false because although birds lay amniotiv eggs, birds are a different taxonomic group than mammals, and not all birds fly.

Answer C is false because although  some reptiles are closely related to birds, the current scientific consensus is that birds are a group of dinosaurs. Also, not all birds fly, and although they have lost the teeth, they  have NOT lost the amniotic egg.
