Answer:

Over-harvesting of the birds, combined with habitat loss and a losing competition with the newly introduced animals, was too much for the dodos to survive. The last dodo was killed in 1681, and the species was lost forever to extinction.

Dodo birds were flightless birds that were gray in color, about 3 feet tall, and weighed 22-40 pounds. The dodo bird lived on the island of Mauritius. They had large hooked beaks. They were flightless birds because they really did not have any predators to fly away from on the island.

The dodo may instead have used its large, hooked beak in territorial disputes. Since Mauritius receives more rainfall and has less seasonal variation than Rodrigues, which would have affected the availability of resources on the island, the dodo would have less reason to evolve aggressive territorial behaviour.

Over-harvesting of the birds, combined with habitat loss and a losing competition with the newly introduced animals, was too much for the dodos to survive. The last dodo was killed in 1681, and the species was lost forever to
extinction.

The first recorded mention of the dodo was by Dutch sailors in 1598. In the following years, the bird was hunted by sailors and invasive species, while its habitat was being destroyed. The last widely accepted sighting of a dodo was in 1662.

Here we use a statistical method to establish the actual extinction time of the dodo as 1690, almost 30 years after its most recent sighting. Its last confirmed sighting was in 1662, although an escaped slave claimed to have seen the bird as recently as 1674.

Add a comma or an exclamation point to the following sentences to set apart the interjection. No _____ I will not give in to you
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

No, I will not give in to your temper tantrum! No, I don't believe we have received your letter yet. Well, maybe she can get a ride with someone else. Oh! You startled me! So, when would you like to eat dinner?

Explanation:

The commas(,) are employed in a sentence primarily yo mark a pause or to separate the introductory part of the sentence from the rest of the sentence while an exclamation mark(!) is used to express the emotions of excitement, surprise, or any such strong feeling or emotions. As per this definition, the given blanks are filled accordingly. Since the sentence beginning with 'oh' denotes a strong emotion of surprise, it will employ the exclamation mark(!), the other sentences just mark a pause after the introductory word 'yes', 'no', or 'well' and thus, they will use comma(,).
