Flightless birds evolved from flying ancestors; there are about forty species in existence today. The best-known flightless birds are the ostrich, emu, cassowary, rhea and penguins. Most flightless birds evolved in the absence of predators, on islands, and lost the power of flight because they had few enemies. A notable exception, the ostrich, which lives in the African savannas, has claws on its feet to use as a weapon against predators. Two key differences between flying and flightless birds are the smaller wing bones of flightless birds and the absent (or greatly reduced) keel on their breastbone. The keel anchors muscles needed for wing movement. Flightless birds also have more feathers than flying birds.

A) flightless birds have the smaller wing bones than flying birds

Nutrient deficiencies lead to an array of diseases and health conditions, including dementia and death, explains Healthline. Vitamin deficiencies are associated with several deficiency diseases, underscoring the need to ensure sufficient vitamin intake. Mineral deficiencies are also associated with diseases, including goiter, rickets and anemia. A nutritional deficiency can be caused by intake of inadequate nutrients, or a defect in the body’s absorption mechanism.Goiter is characterized by an enlarged thyroid gland. Marasmus and kwashiorkor are symptoms of malnutrition in young children. Over 40 percent of the world’s population is anemic as a result of iron deficiencies, according to the World Health Organization. According to George Krucik, M.D., of Healthline, eating a healthy diet and taking approved dietary supplements help in alleviating deficiency diseases. Before taking any nutrient supplements to treat a deficiency disease, speaking with professional nutritionist or doctor is recommended.

Scientists who study Earth's moon have two big regrets about the six Apollo missions that landed a dozen astronauts on the lunar surface between 1969 and 1972. The biggest regret, of course, is that the missions ended so abruptly, with so much of the moon still unexplored. But researchers also lament that the great triumph of Apollo led to a popular misconception: because astronauts have visited the moon, there is no compelling reason to go back. In the 1990s, however, two probes that orbited the moon raised new questions about Earth's airless satellite. One stunning discovery was strong evidence of water ice in the perpetually shadowed areas near the moon's poles. Because scientists believe that comets deposited water and organic compounds on both Earth and its moon, well-preserved ice at the lunar poles could yield clues to the origins of life.
According to the passage, even though there were six Apollo missions to the moon roughly thirty years ago, —.
A) none of them could claim to be successful
B) man's knowledge of the moon has not increased at all
C) a very large proportion of the lunar surface remains to date unexamined
