B) Most predators have eyes on the sides of their heads.
C) Binocular vision helps prey animals scan their surroundings for predators.
D) Most prey animals have eyes on the sides of their head and monocular vision.
E) Monocular vision allows for better depth perception.

Accepted Answer

Prey animals, such as rabbits and deer, have eyes on the sides of their heads and monocular vision. This allows them to have a wider field of view to detect predators while sacrificing binocular vision and depth perception. Most predators have binocular vision and eyes facing forward for better depth perception and precision in hunting.
