Answer

Answer:

The second graph (from the left)

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the bird's motion

The bird first flies away from the nest (distance from nest increases with time).

Step2: Consider the eating - stop

When the bird stops to eat, the distance from the nest remains constant (horizontal line on the graph).

Step3: Analyze post - eating motion

After eating, it continues flying away from the nest (distance from nest increases again with time). The second graph shows an initial increase in distance, a horizontal part for the stop, and then another increase in distance which matches the bird's described motion.
