The answer is the fourth one: the species live nowhere else.

Explanation for each option:

  • The species migrate from place to place: This is incorrect. "Endemic" refers to species that are native to a specific location and do not naturally occur elsewhere.
  • Little known: This is incorrect. "Endemic" does not refer to how well-known a species is.
  • Predatory: This is incorrect. "Endemic" does not describe the feeding habits or behavior of a species.
  • The species live nowhere else: This is correct. "Endemic" means that the species are native to a particular area and are not found naturally anywhere else in the world.
  • The species are endangered: This is incorrect. While some endemic species may be endangered, "endemic" itself does not mean endangered.
  • IDONT KNOW YET: This is not a valid answer choice.

In summary, "endemic" means that the species live nowhere else.

Which of the following is NOT TRUE about British Taxation after the French and Indian ・ War/7 Years War Colonists were not given a say in the quality and nature of the taxes Britain imposed. New British taxes on American Colonies were passed without going through the normal legislative process, angering colonists. Colonists avoided many new taxes by smuggling.
