b. disgusting and clumsy lizards
c. black as the porous rocks 
d. crawl and seek their prey from the sea on rocks 
e. assuredly became the land that they inhabit. 

In his writings he wrote: 

</span>"The black Lava rocks on the beach are frequented by large (2–3 ft<span> [0.6–0.9 m]</span>), disgusting clumsy Lizards. They are as black as the porous rocks over which they crawl & seek their prey from the Sea. I call them 'imps of darkness'. They assuredly well-become the land they inhabit."

Answer:

They are nonlobed, simple leaves and are attached oppositely on the branch.

Explanation:

A dichotomous key is a tool you use in biology to know the identity of things in nature such as trees,flowers, fish or even rocks. This key has choices that follow each other in a progressive manner, where one choice led to the other until you identify the item.In this case, to identify Dogwood, you follow the below steps;

1b. Broad leaf = Step 2

2b. Simple leaf = Step 7

7a. Leaf bases attached opposite each other on branch = Step 8

8b. Leaves not lobed = Step 9

9b. Leaves not heart shaped = Dogwood

The key is (1b,2b,7a,8b,9b)
