The following sentences are from a draft of a paragraph about the farming behaviors of leafcutter ants. In what order should these sentences be arranged so that the paragraph's central claim is supported by a logical sequence of evidence and details?
- 1Leafcutter ants operate complex underground farms to cultivate their primary food source.
- 2To start this process, they transport freshly cut leaves into their subterranean nests.
- 3In these chambers, the ants chew the leaves into a pulp that serves as fertilizer for a specific species of fungus.
- 4Finally, the colony feeds exclusively on this cultivated fungus, which they carefully tend and protect from mold.
Cevap
The paragraph should begin with the claim that leafcutter ants operate underground farms, followed by the sentence describing the transport of cut leaves into their nests, then the sentence explaining how the leaves serve as fertilizer in these chambers, and end with the sentence describing how the colony feeds on the cultivated fungus.
The paragraph is structured logically by starting with the general claim that leafcutter ants operate underground farms. The subsequent sentences follow the process in order: harvesting leaves, decomposing them in chambers to grow fungus, and consuming the resulting crop.
