The central idea is the main idea or the most important part of the story. It can also be an opinion statement that is able to be supported by the details. As you read the passage, what is is mostly about? What factual information is presented that can lead you to the main idea. In other words, the main idea (or central idea) is more general and the supporting details are more focused.
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.

No, the sentence given:
_________________________
"<span>i came home late; therefore, i didnt see aunt matildia" — is NOT punctuated correctly.
____________________________________________
The word: "didnt" should be replaced with: "didn't" (note the added "apostrophe")—or rewritten as two word: "did not".
Furthermore, there should be a "period" at the end of the sentence.
___________________________
As far as other grammar errors are concerned, the second instance of the use of the personal pronoun, "I"—is incorrectly written in the lower case: "i"—and should be replaced with the capital letter, "I". Furthermore, "</span>aunt matildia" should be rewritten with a capital letter "A" replacing the word: "aunt" [the word: "aunt" should be changed to "Aunt"], and the name: "matildia" should be rewritten with a capital "M" replacing the name: "matildia" [the name "matildia" should be replaced with "Matildia"]. Also, if "Aunt Matildia" is, in fact, really spelled that way, than the spelling of the name should be retained. On the other hand, if the aunt's name is actually spelled: "Mathilda"—or some variant, then the proper spelling should be used—and the first letter should be capitalized.
