During the summer, the taiga warms up and there are growing trees and millions of insects, therefore, every year, insect eating birds migrate to the taiga to nest and feed. However, these birds cannot live in the taiga year round because they cannot tolerate the winter weather, and in the winter there are not enough insects to provide an adequate food supply. Which statement best summarizes the information above?

A)
The taiga is important to birds from other biomes.
B)
Insects exist in the millions in the taiga during the summer because of the growth of trees.
C)
Birds cannot exist in the taiga during the winter.
D)
During the summer, many animals migrate to the taiga because of the large food sources.
PLEASE HELP!!!

Answer:

B. Insects exist in the millions in the taiga during the summer because of the growth of trees.

Step-by-step explanation:

A is wrong because not all birds from every single biome migrate to eat those insects. C is wrong because birds CAN exist in the taiga during winter, but these specific birds migrate for the insects. D can be seen as correct, but it is wrong because it says MANY animals, when really the paragraph is stating that these birds migrate. D would've been correct if it said "During the summmer, these birds mirgrate to the Taiga because of the large food sources."

I also just took the quiz and D was incorrect, haha.
