Both ladybugs and humans have only a few offspring.
Both ladybugs and humans expend energy and time to care for their offspring.
The correct statement is: "Humans expend energy and time to care for offspring, while ladybugs do not."
To determine the correct answer from the given options, we need to compare the reproductive behavior of ladybugs and humans.
For the first statement, it states that ladybugs have only a few offspring, while humans have many. However, the second statement is identical to the first, so we can eliminate these options.
For the third statement, it states that both ladybugs and humans expend energy and time to care for their offspring. However, this contradicts with what we know about ladybugs. Ladybugs do not provide parental care for their offspring, while humans do. Therefore, we can eliminate this option as well.
This leaves us with the second statement, which says that humans expend energy and time to care for offspring, while ladybugs do not. This statement is true because it accurately represents the difference in parenting behavior between these two species.
So, the correct answer is: "Humans expend energy and time to care for offspring, while ladybugs do not."
The correct statement is:
Both ladybugs and humans expend energy and time to care for their offspring.
