The statement "It is located in Blue Ridge" is NOT true about the Okefenokee Swamp.
To determine which statement is NOT true about the Okefenokee Swamp, we need to examine each response:
1. "It is located in the Coastal Plains."
2. "It was designated as a national wildlife refuge."
3. "It is home to many diverse plants and animals."
4. "It is located in Blue Ridge."
To find out which statement is false, we need to know the actual location of the Okefenokee Swamp and compare it to the options provided.
The Okefenokee Swamp is indeed located in the Coastal Plains. This means that the first statement is true.
The Okefenokee Swamp was designated as a national wildlife refuge, so the second statement is true as well.
The Okefenokee Swamp is known for its diverse ecosystems, so the third statement is also true.
Now, we need to consider the fourth statement, which states that the Okefenokee Swamp is located in Blue Ridge. If Blue Ridge is not a suitable location for the Okefenokee Swamp, it would make this statement false.
Based on this analysis, the statement that is NOT true about the Okefenokee Swamp is:
- It is located in Blue Ridge.
Therefore, the answer is "It is located in Blue Ridge".
