Which of these is the correct explanation of mass change in developing eggs as illustrated in the graph? Select one: A. A is the correct representation of mass change because as the baby bird develops inside the egg, it grows new parts. B. B is the correct representation of mass change because the baby bird uses cellular respiration to fuel the biosynthesis of new parts and gives off mass as CO2. C. C is the correct representation showing that nothing new comes into the egg and nothing leaves the egg, so it retains the same mass.

The egg of a hummingbird weighs about 0.3 g, while that of the now-extinct elephant bird of Madagascar weighs about 10 kg. In both species, one or both parents would spend at least some time incubating the eggs to keep the body temperature of the embryos at the optimal temperature for development. Discuss the impact of the egg size difference between these species on gas transfer, body temperature of the offspring, and eggshell thickness.
