Which best describes what happens when an animal does not form a social group?

An animal without a social group must hunt alone, so capturing large prey can be more difficult than when several animals cooperate. Social groups can also share tasks and help defend against predators, so choices B and D describe disadvantages of being alone inaccurately. Choice C is not generally true because living alone does not necessarily provide access to multiple mates.
