Final answer:
The statement that wolves and dogs have the same amount of strength in their jaws is not true. Wolves, having not undergone selective breeding for reduced jaw strength, generally possess a more powerful bite than domesticated dogs.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement about wolves and domesticated dogs that is NOT true is: c. Wolves and dogs have the same amount of strength in their jaws. While both wolves (Canis lupus) and domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) are members of the same family and share various modes of communication including body language and sounds, their physical attributes such as jaw strength can differ significantly. This is due to the different living conditions and the selective breeding that dogs have undergone over thousands of years since their domestication.
Wolves have not been selectively bred for reduced jaw strength as dogs sometimes have been. Wolves require a more powerful bite to hunt and survive in the wild, whereas many dogs have been bred for traits other than powerful jaws, leading to varying levels of jaw strength among different dog breeds.
Additionally, while wolves and domestic dogs may look similar, especially when dogs have a wolf-like appearance due to their breed, they are not identical. There is a wide variety of physical characteristics among dog breeds that have emerged through selective breeding processes, which can result in significant differences in size, build, and coat when compared to wolves.
