Question

Select the best evidence to support the statement ""Rocky river bottoms are vital to the Eastern hellbenders’ lifecycle."" there may be more than one correct choice.

Answer 1

Answer: "This nocturnal amphibian often hides under the same rock for its entire adult life span-up to thirty years-emerging at night to feed largely on crayfish."

Explanation:

Rocky River bottoms at North Carolina Pisgah National Forest are where Eastern Hellbenders seem to blending into.

They could be right underneath swimmers who would never know that they are there meaning that the swimmers could inadvertently destroy or cause damage to the habitat of the Eastern Hellbenders.

These habitats are very important to the Eastern Hellbender because as the text states, they could hide under the same rock for their entire lifespan which is on average 30 years. Those rocky bottoms are therefore very important to it's lifecycle.
