Answer:

1) Ostriches don't bury their heads in the sand—they wouldn't be able to breathe! But they do dig holes in the dirt to use as nests for their eggs. Several times a day, a bird puts her head in the hole and turns the eggs. So it really does look like the birds are burying their heads in the sand.

2) Showing love towards plants is taking care of them and attending them with their needs. This surely helps in growth of plant. Treating plant with melodious music or classical music will surely promote the growth of the plant as the vibrations influence the growth factors in the plant.

Answer with Explanation:

1st Question :-

◾ Does an ostrich really stick its head in the sand to hide from an enemy?

Answer :-

No, What this tall birds does on sensing danger from far is to lie flat on the ground with its long neck almost horizontal. The enemy may not spot the ostrich in this position from a distance and it may be mistaken for a shrub or bush. If the danger is close by, the ostrich will take off and run. Though ostriches cannot fly, but they can run as fast as 65 km per hour. If cornered, they give a swift, hard kick. An ostrich burying its head in sand to escape attention is a metaphor for people who ignore rather than face a problem.

2nd Question :-

◾If you show love to plants or expose them to classical music,they grow well. Is this true?

Answer :-

According to some botanists, plants are able to sense the vibrations of music through their Stomata. How this occurs is not yet known. Yields of some crops are reported to have increased substantially when the plants were exposed to music. Many plant Iovers, including Prince Charles of Britain, believe that talking to plants makes them grow better.

What are Mangrove Forests?

Answer :-

'Mangrove' is the name commonly used for varieties of shurbs or tree growing in the muddy swamps of tropical coasts and estuaries. Mangroves produce tangled roots that grow above the ground. They produce new trunks and thus rapidly from a dense growth. Mangrove timber is impervious to water and is resisting to marine worms.
