Answer: C) Poison dart frogs are brightly colored and poisonous to animals that eat them.

A is not the answer because that line explains where frogs get their names from, and introduces the topic of bright colors talking about the frog's bright eyes. B links the topic of bright colors to the fact that they serve as a warning sign for poison or danger, and D supports this topic by stating that bright colors help red-eyed tree frogs survive in nature. C, on the other hand, introduces a new species of frog that is not talked about during the rest of the essay, and it does not support the idea of colors being crucial in the red-eyed tree frog's surivival.

<span>After the war, the Nigerian government switched the currency from Biafran money to pounds. 

This fact is important to understanding the piece because it helps the reader know the reason for the man to have to stand in line just to turn his money in for a type of money that he doesn't understand at all (which is shown by the fact they call it 'egg rashers'). </span>

andrezito [222]

Answer:

In fact, it can lead to a host of unwanted consequences, like building mutual distrust between you and your children. It can backfire and encourage them to try even harder to hide risky behavior because they know you're looking for it. Yet, surveys say it's quite common for parents to digitally snoop on their kids.

Hope this helps, have a great day/night, and stay safe!
