Do predators really kill only the old and sick prey? What evidence is there for this statement

No, but it is known that old/sick prey is much easier to catch. The evidence is that, say, there's no old and sick prey. The predator has to eat regardless, and whatever is there for it to take, it will. Think of a lion and a zebra, and the zebra is eating grass in the middle of a field. The lion is going to take that chance.

Identify each items as either an element or a compound
ruslelena [56]
Carbon (C) is an element
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is a compound
Hydrogen (H) is an element
Sodium Chloride (NaCl) is a compound
A good way to tell whether something is a compound or an element, is that in a compound there is a mixture of different elements. Like in Carbon Dioxide, the symbol is CO2. This shows the carbon (C) and oxygen (O) together. I hope i worded that well enough and this helps :)
